Brief Summary

The efficacy of conventional systemic antibiotic therapy for eradication of gastric H. pylori has been seriously challenged by antibiotic resistance. Identification of alternative therapeutic strategies might help to overcome the limitation. The investigators' aim was to examine the effect of adjunct periodontal therapy, on gastric H. pylori eradication rate.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • eradication rate of gastric H. pylori infection

    The follow-up was done by a 14C-urea breath test at least 12 weeks after completion of treatment . A 14C urea breath test analyzer (HUBT-20; Headway, Guangdong, China) was used to diagnose H. pylori infection

    3 months

Secondary Outcomes (7)

  • oral H. pylori eradication

    3 months

  • periodontal parameters (Probing depth)

    3 months

  • Clinical Attachment level

    3 months

  • OHI (Oral Hygiene Index)

    3 months

  • Gingival Index

    3 months

  • +2 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Triple therapy

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Conventional triple antibiotic treatment would be applied to all patients (consisted of a 10-day course of Lansoprazole (a proton pump inhibitor) combined with amoxicillin ( 2 × 1 g daily) and clarithromycin (2 × 500 mg daily).

Drug: Triple therapy

Combined treatment

EXPERIMENTAL

Periodontal treatment would be administered in addition to triple therapy consisted of a 10-day course of a Lansoprazole (proton pump inhibitor )combined with amoxicillin (2 × 1 g daily) and clarithromycin (2 × 500 mg daily). Periodontal treatment consisted of supra and sub gingival scaling and root planing, oral hygiene instruction

Drug: Triple therapyProcedure: professional periodontal treatment

Interventions

triple therapy:a 10-day course of a Lansoprazole (proton pump inhibitor )combined with amoxicillin (2 × 1 g daily) and clarithromycin (2 × 500 mg daily).(trio)

Also known as: Systemic eradication therapy
Combined treatmentTriple therapy

periodontal treatment consisting of mechanical periodontal treatment (scaling and root planing) Oral hygiene insruction Periodontal treatment started concurrently with triple therapy

Also known as: initial periodontal therapy
Combined treatment

Model Details: Participants with positive for both for H. pylori in gastric biopsy specimens and dental plaque samples by histologic examination with immunostaining and the rapid urease test (RUT), on gastric biopsy specimens obtained during gastrointestinal endoscopy were divided into 2 groups. Patients were allocated to one of the eradication regimens: triple therapy only or triple therapy combined with periodontal treatment. Each participant in both group received of a 10-day course of a proton pump inhibitor (Lansoprazole ) combined with amoxicillin (2 × 1 g daily) and clarithromycin (2 × 500 mg daily). Meanwhile, combined treatment group further received periodontal treatment consisted of scaling or combined with root planing and oral hygiene instructions.
