Prevalence of Streptococcus oralis_dentisani infection in the stomach of patients with severe gastric diseases

Background: Development of gastric diseases like gastritis, peptic ulcer and gastric cancer depends on several biotic and abiotic factors and Helicobacter pylori infection is a well-known biotic factor. However, not all H. pylori-infectedindividuals develop gastric diseases and not all individuals with gastric diseases are infected with H. pylori. Therefore, it is possible that other gastric bacteria also contribute to the formation and progression of gastric diseases.
