What is Helicobacter pylori infection in children with celiac disease: Multi‐center, cross‐sectional study about?
## Background: An inverse association has been suggested between celiac disease (cd) and helicobacter pylori (hp) infection in children; however, there are inconsistent data. the purpose of this multi-center study is to evaluate the association between hp and cd in childhood. ## Methods: Children who underwent endoscopy between july 2016 and november 2017 in four pediatric gastroenterology centers were included in the study. patients with a history of previous hp eradication, antibiotic or acid-suppressive drug therapy in the last 4 weeks, and any underlying chronic disease were excluded. the presence of hp infection was confirmed by both histopathology and the rapid urease test. the ones who had the diagnosis of cd were compared with the children who underwent endoscopy during the same period and had another diagnosis. duodenal histopathology of children with cd was categorized according to the modified marsh classification. ## Results: Of 3056 endoscopies performed in the study period, 2484 cases were eligible for the study. a total of 482 cd patients (mean age: 9.71 ± 4.63 years, 58.5% girls) and 2060 controls (mean age: 9.92 ± 4.66 years, 54.6% girls) were included in the study
