Eight strains of sonicated Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) were pooled as group antigen to detect the serum IgG antibody to H. pylori in patients with various gastroduodenal diseases and subjects at health check-up. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method used had a sensitivity of 94%, a specificity of 87%, and a positive predictive value of 96%. The prevalence of serum IgG antibody to H. pylori was 19.0% in patients with Type A gastritis, 76.0% in patients with Type B gastritis, 91.5% in duodenal ulcer, and 92.9% in gastric ulcer. Moreover, the prevalence of serum IgG antibody to H. Pylori in newborns was 53% (probably acquired from mother), in children below 10 years old was 25%. The detection rate gradually rose to 70% with the increase of age, but decreased to 40% in those over 70 years of age.
