Tu1543 STUDY OF GUT MICROBIOTA IN GASTRO ESOPHAGEAL REFLUX DISEASE WITH OR WITHOUT HELICOBACTER PYLORI INFECTION IN INDIA.

Studies of the gastric microbiota showed that Helicobacter pylori (Hp) was not alone and the interaction of Hp with those microorganisms might play a part in Hp associated diseases and Gastro esophageal reflux disease (GERD). The respective roles of these species in development of different diseases including GERD remains to be determined. Metagenomics study can provide new access to the constitution and diversity of the microbiota as well as the function of microbiota in the pathogenesis of GERD in presence or absence of Hp.
