Seroreactivity against Helicobacter pylori VacA,50kDa and 30kDa along with alarm features may improve the diagnostic approach to uninvestigated dyspepsia: A pilot study [PDF]
Background/Aim. Alarm features (AF) are of limited utility in predicting endoscopic findings, and the majority of patients with uninvestigated dyspepsia will have no organic pathology identified at upper gastrointestinal endoscopy. In our previous study,
