The Potential Role of Helicobacter pylori-Related Mast Cell Activation in the Progression from Gastroesophageal Reflux to Barrett’s Esophagus and Esophageal Adenocarcinoma Open
Helicobacter pylori (Hp), a widespread gastric pathogen, has long been studied for its role in upper gastrointestinal disorders. While its involvement in gastritis, peptic ulcer disease, and gastric cancer is well established, its impact o…
