‘NA’ (not available) indicates a lack of data associating cagA status, EPIYA motif genotype, and vacA s-, m-, and i-region genotypes.

*: p < 0.05 (significant differences between Northern and Southern parts in Vietnam) by use of chi-square test, #: p < 0.05 (significant differences among Thai, Thai-Chinese, and Chinese in Thailand) by use of chi-square test, **: p < 0.05 (significant differences among Chinese, Indian, and Malay in Malaysia) by use of chi-square test.
