  • Title: Helicobacter pylori and extragastric diseases -- other helicobacters.
    Author: Gasbarrini A, Carloni E, Gasbarrini G, Ménard A.
    Journal: Helicobacter; 2003; 8 Suppl 1():68-76. PubMed ID: 14617220.
    Abstract:
    The role of Helicobacter pylori infection is explored in more and more extragastric diseases without definite proof in most of the studies, except possibly some hematologic diseases. In cardiovascular diseases, including stroke, the presence of CagA positive strains may be involved. The possible role of helicobacters in hepatobiliary diseases goes beyond that of H. pylori to involve enterohepatic helicobacters. New Helicobacter species are regularly described and molecular methods are developed to improve their detection. Helicobacter felis remains the major species to be used in animal models of Helicobacter infection.
