Abstract

Infection with CagA-positive Helicobacter pylori may be diagnosed by detecting cagA gene by polymerase chain reaction assay (PCR) or serum antibodies against CagA by Western blot analysis. The aim of this study is to evaluate whether results of PCR and Western blot analysis are in agreement in CagA status assessment.
