我们检查了秘鲁三个不同地理区域(海岸、安第斯山脉的塞拉山脉和亚马逊丛林)的内窥镜门诊患者是否存在与活动性胃炎相关的幽门螺杆菌感染。所有三个地区的总感染率都很高(80%或更高)，男性的感染率大约比同一地区的女性高10%。塞拉利昂和丛林地区的男性和女性的感染率明显高于沿海地区。在感染与胃炎分级的关系方面，三种人群之间无显著差异。
We have examined endoscopic clinic patients in three widely different geographic regions of Peru (the coast, the Sierra of the Andes Mountains, and the Amazon jungle) for the presence of Helicobacter pylori infection associated with active gastritis. The overall rates of infection were high (80% or greater) in all three zones and rates for men were approximately 10% higher than for women in the same zone. Men and women in the Sierra and jungle areas had significantly higher rates of infection than did those on the coast. There was no significant difference between the three populations with respect to the relationship between infection and grade of gastritis.
