Correlation of the bacterial load in gastric mucosa with H. pylori. Bacterial load and quantity of H. pylori were determined using quantitative PCR. The amount was calculated as copy numbers of the 16S rRNA gene (or ureB for H. pylori) per microgram DNA. Linear regression analysis found that the bacterial load was positively, although weakly, correlated with the quantity of H. pylori in gastric mucosa (R=0.38, P<0.001). H. pylori, Helicobacter pylori.
