The paper evaluates the correlation between culture tested for Helicobacter pylori from biopsy material obtained from patients diagnosed with stomach ulcer, duodenal ulcer and gastritis, and the level of specific IgG antibodies measured by the ELISA test. As compared with culture, the ELISA test yielded a higher percentage of positive assays. Antibody titer was particularly raised in patients with duodenal ulcer, which accounted for 83% of cases. The highest frequency of positive cultures (50%) was also obtained in this group of patients. Essentially, the results are in agreement with findings reported by other authors.

D011237 Predictive Value of Tests In screening and diagnostic tests, the probability that a person with a positive test is a true positive (i.e., has the disease), is referred to as the predictive value of a positive test; whereas, the predictive value of a negative test is the probability that the person with a negative test does not have the disease. Predictive value is related to the sensitivity and specificity of the test.

D004797 Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay An immunoassay utilizing an antibody labeled with an enzyme marker such as horseradish peroxidase. While either the enzyme or the antibody is bound to an immunosorbent substrate, they both retain their biologic activity; the change in enzyme activity as a result of the enzyme-antibody-antigen reaction is proportional to the concentration of the antigen and can be measured spectrophotometrically or with the naked eye. Many variations of the method have been developed.
