The germ of the stomach is a bacterium carried by more than 80% of adults aged 50 and under and most children under 10, especially developing countries. The increase in the probability of infection of this virus, among other factors, is overcrowding, sharing of bed sheets with others, the large number of family members, the housing of infected people, pollution of food and water. Salty food contributes to the length of bacteria in the stomach, increasing the risk of cancer of the stomach.

Antacids and antibiotics also affect the results of these tests: it is recommended to stop antacids before surgery for one to two weeks, as well as to perform tests after four weeks of stopping antibiotics.

In the absence of symptoms associated with most people infected with this virus, the majority of doctors recommend diagnostic tests in some cases. The most important is the presence of ulcers or tumors of the stomach at an early stage, as well as tumors of the lymphatic glands of the stomach. In the age group below 60 years and without alarming symptoms, as well as in cases of iron deficiency anemia, the cause is not known.
