  1. Helicobacter pylori numa população dispéptica no Algarve: prevalência e caracterização genética. INTRODUÇÃO: Dado o papel nuclear do Helicobacter pylori (Hp) na etiopatogenia das doenças gastroduodenais, é fundamental conhecer a sua prevalência e as suas características em cada região. OBJECTIVOS: determinar, numa população dispéptica no Algarve, a prevalência da infecção por Hp, fazer a sua caracterização genética e correlacionar ambas com os diagnósticos endoscópicos. MÉTODOS: Seleccionamos. 2010.
