AIM: To investigate the diagnostic value of CagA IgG in serum.
METHODS: Seventy three patients with peptic ulcer infected with Hp were eradicated by antibiotics therapy. At pretreatment, wk 9 and wk 20 after treatment, the detection of Hp in gastric muscosa by bacteriologic method were performed, and CagA and whole-cell antigen of Hp igG in serum by ELISA method were also performed at the same time.
RESULTS: The IgG titres of Hp CagA and whole-cell antigen changes in accordance with the efficacy of Hp eradicated. The former with an earlier appearance and a greater number of cases decreased to normal level in comparison with the latter.
CONCLUSION: CagA IgG is a better index for observing the effectiveness of the eradication of Hp.
