Objective: The prevalence of H. pylori infection varies significantly and developing countries are found to be the highest in Asia. In the present study, we have aimed to perform a combined analysis of histochemical stains and IHC to confirm the H.pylori infection of patients in 5 different provinces and Ulaanbaatar city, Mongolia. Method: Five hundred and thirty-eight patients were enrolled in this study (142 gastric mucosal atrophy, 333 gastritis and 62 gastroesophageal reflux). Results: 67.1 % of participants had CagA positive and 69.3 % were immunohistochemically positive. All histological results showed that the gastritis group was significantly higher in patients who were positive for H. pylori than in antral-predominant gastritis. By the hematoxylin and eosin staining with May– Giemsa confirmation by IHC, the prevalence of H. pylori infection in the gastric mucosal atrophy group was 62.1 %, while in the gastritis and gastroesophageal reflux group, the rate was 74.3 % and 59.1 %, respectively. Conclusion: CagA sequence profile in each group of patients revealed that 22.6 % of the gastric mucosal atrophy group was ABC type, 43.4 % was ABCC type and 33.9 % was ABTC type. On the other hand, in the gastritis group, the dominant type was ABTC (41.3 %). In the gastroesophageal reflux group, the ABCC type was dominant while 23.1% was the ABC type.

BACKGROUND: 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing is an accurate method of detecting microbial infection without culture. It is unclear if sequencing has additional benefits over routine diagnostic methods for Helicobacter pylori testing. METHODS: We enrolled Mongolian volunteers with dyspepsia. Using routine diagnostic methods, positive H. pylori was defined as positive results on histology/immunohistochemistry, culture, rapid urease test, or serology; negative H. pylori was defined by negative results from all these tests. We performed 16S rRNA sequencing on gastric biopsy specimens and calculated cutoffs for operational taxonomic units (OTUs) and relative abundance (RA) to define positive results using ROC curves. RESULTS: We examined 161 individuals with a mean age of 43.6 years, and 64.6% were women. Using routine diagnostic methods, 122 (75.8%) participants were H. pylori positive, the sensitivity and specificity for 16S rRNA sequencing were 94.3% and 82.1% or 93.4% and 82.1% when cutoff values were set to 1113 (OTU number) or 4.4% RA, respectively (both p < .001). When combining the validated values, the concordance rate was high (91.1%); however, 16S rRNA sequencing had additional positive yield in 9 cases (5.6%) compared with routine diagnostic methods, and much greater additional positive yield compared to histopathology/IHC, culture, RUT, serology separately with 12 (7.4%), 37 (23.0%) and 43 (26.7%). CONCLUSION: 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing detects potentially important proportion of H. pylori-positive cases that test negative with routine diagnostic methods. The quantitative number of H. pylori can help to understand how it can be changing by diseases and RA give opportunity to understand how H. pylori communicate with other microbiota.
