Abstract
Helicobacter pylori infection is associated with increased gastrin release in patients with normal renal function. Hypergastrinaemia is a common finding in haemodialysis patients and, in many cases, may be linked to H. pylori infection. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of H. pylori infection, and its eradication, on elevated gastrin levels in haemodialysis patients.
