dc.description.abstractBackground and Methods: A total antibody latex serology test was compared with enzyme immunoassay serology after treatment for Helicobacter pylori infection in 22 patients. Result(s): Nineteen patients were cured of infection, but only nine (47%) were negative by the latex test after 6 months. However a significant decline in immunoglobulin (Ig)G was seen in 90% of the cured patients. Conclusion(s): Although the latex test is suitable for initial diagnosis of H. pylori infection, it is not suitable for monitoring treatment success. A decline in IgG of more than 40% correlates well with successful eradication of H. pylori. (C) 2000 Blackwell Science Asia Pty Ltd.en
