Effect of Helicobacter pylori eradication on the incidence of gastric cancer: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Since eradication effects in preventing gastric cancer are conceivably greater there, GC incidence may decline faster in Japan than expected from the previous meta-analyses data which were based on multi-national, mixed populations with differing screening quality and disease progression.
