Hepatitis reporting systems and registers should be improved to facilitate data capture of indicators and standardised across the country to allow for comparability. Furthermore, where gain…
Prevalence of helicobacter pylori infection among children living in a rural setting in Sub-Saharan Africa
Our study demonstrated a high prevalence of H. pylori infection among children in a rural setting.
