Inference from the analysis of genetic structure of Helicobacter pylori strains isolates from two paediatric patients with recurrent infection

Abstract Background Helicobacter pylori recurrence after successful eradication is an important problem. Children are particularly vulnerable to reinfection, by intrafamilial transmission which facilitates the acquisition or recombination of new genetic information by this bacterium. We investigated...
