Detection rates of Helicobacter pylori, HSV-1, CMV, and their combinations in various gastric mucosal damages, as evidenced by esophagogastroduodenoscopy.
| Gastric mucosa status | H. pylori | HSV-1 | CMV | H.pylori + HSV-1 + CMV |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| (n = 29) | (n = 7) | (n = 3) | (n = 36) | |
| Antral gastritis, n (%) | 26 (89.7) | 7 (100.0) | 3 (100.0) | 28 (77.8) |
| Pangastritis, n (%) | 4 (13.8) | 0 | 0 | 3 (8.3) |
| Gastric mucosal erosion, n (%) | 8 (27.6) | 2 (28.6) | 0 | 9 (25.0) |
| Gastric mucosal hemorrhage, n (%) | 4 (13.8) | 2 (28.6) | 0 | 1 (2.8) |
| Intact gastric mucosa, n (%) | 1 (3.4) | 1 (14.3) | 0 | 4 (11.1) |
Note: The percentage of positive results was calculated from the number of patients having an infectious agent.
