Abstract

Recurrent esophageal varices bleeding  in  liver cirrhosis  increase  the morbidity and mortality. 50 ! 60% patients with Esophageal Varricess (EV) will experience recurrent bleeding, 30% or one third of them will experience recurrent bleeding one year after diagnosis of EV. Mostly recurrent bleeding will be found at 6 weeks until 6 months after the Þ rst bleeding. Prevention of recurrent bleeding is important for survival. The aim of this research to know the risk factors of recurrent EV bleeding in liver cirrhotic patients and the onset of recurrent bleeding after the Þ rst endoscopy. This is a  cross sectional study. Thirty Þ ve decompensated liver cirrhosis patients that fulÞ ll the inclusion and exclusion criteria participated in this study. After the Þ rst endoscopy, the risk factors are written, consist of sex, age, ascites, degree of varices, history of LVE/STE the severity of liver disease, and history of consuming gastric iritating drugs. The patients followed for six months to evaluated  the occurence of  recurrent bleeding. We used Pearson Chi-Square  test  for statistic analysis  (signiÞ cant  if p < 0.05). SPSS 17 were used to statistic calculation. Statistic analytical showed signiÞ cant correlation (p = 0.006; OR = 8.889; CI: 1.803 ! 43.820). On  the other hand sex, age, degree of EV, history of STE/LVE showed non signiÞ cant correlation. The main risk factor of recurrent EV in liver cirrhosis is the severity of liver disease.

Abstract

Background: The urea breath test (UBT) has been published as the most sensitive and specific non-invasive test to detect Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection. The limitation of UBT is the need of expensive equipment that is not always widely available. Recently, UBT has already been available in Surabaya. In the other hand, our experience using rapid urease test which detected urease enzyme produced by H. pylori as UBT showed low sensitivity. Objective: To investigate the validation of UBT for the diagnosis of H. pylori infection in patient with dyspepsia. Design: Cross-sectional study. Method: Sixty patients who complained symptoms of dyspepsia were examined for H. pylori infection using UBT. Gastroscopy and biopsy was were performed and the biopsy specimens were examined by Pathologist. Results: Sixty patients consist of 28 male and 32 female were enrolled of this study. Eight patients had H. pylori positive by both UBT and histologic examination. One patient was H. pylori positive by UBT but negative by histologic examination. One patient was H. pylori negative by UBT but positive by histologic examination. The sensitivity of UBT was 88.9% and the specificity was 98 %. The negative predictive value was 98%. Conclusion: In this study, UBT has lower sensitivity (88.9%) and comparable specificity (98%) for diagnosing H. pylori infection. Comprehensive studies to determine the doses of 13C-urea, test meal and appropriate collection time, which is more suitable for local population was suggested.
