Helicobacter pylori and enteric parasites co-infection among Egyptian children: Estimated risks,
and predictive factor
Asmaa Ibrahim Nasr

H.pylori and intestinal parasites are known for their high prevalence in children. Both of them infect the gastrointestinal
tract with overlapping clinical pictures. This study was conducted to determine H.pylori prevalence and its association
with intestinal parasites in children, moreover to estimate risk and predictive factors for their detection in stool samples.
Single fecal samples were collected from 226 Egyptian pediatric patients (125 diarrheic and 101 non-diarrheic) attending
gastroenterology outpatients’ clinics, from February 2016 to June 2017. All stool specimens were microscopically examined
to search for ova and parasites. Copro-DNAs detection of H.pylori and Cryptosporidium were performed using nested-PCR
assays.H. pylori was detected molecularly in 36.8% of the total study population, with a higher prevalence in diarrheic than in
non-diarrheic children. Intestinal parasites were detected in 27.4%of the total study population, of these, 43.9%had co-existence
with H.pylori colonized patients and was significantly associated with Cryptosporidium spp. and G.intestinalis. Estimated risk
of the presence of H.pylori in January. Our data provide a better understanding of the epidemiology of H.pylori infection when
associated with intestinal parasites. H.pylori co-existence with G.intestinals and Cryptosporidium may suggest the association
of H.pylori infection with markers of fecal exposure. Whether H.pylori provides favorable conditions for intestinal parasitosis
or vice versa, still further investigations are needed with an emphasis upon determining correlation with gut microbiomes.
