Globally, Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is becoming an increasingly troublesome economic and public health problem. Over 50% of the world’s population was estimated to harbor H. pylori in the upper gastrointestinal tract (GIT) and over 80% of them reside in developing nations. Unless treated, colonization persists lifelong where H. pylori presents a key factor in the etiology of GIT diseases; ranging from asymptomatic chronic gastritis up to gastric carcinoma. Therefore, accurate and timely diagnosis is the first step to address this burdensome problem. The aim of this descriptive-cross sectional study was to compare two non-invasive techniques for the diagnosis of H. pylori infection among university students. | Screening for helicobacter pylori infection among asymptomatic university students in Alexandria Egypt using non invasive laboratory techniques
