Question
Chapter 46.6, Problem 3EQ
Summary Introduction
To describe: The treatment process for a person who is diagnosed with H. pylori infection and ulcer by analyzing Marshal and Warren experimental data.
Introduction: Ulcer is the breaking of the inner wall of the stomach which protects the cells from the acid produced in the stomach. In this situation, the patient feels inflammation and pain in the stomach. It can be controlled by giving antacids which provide sufficient time for the healing of cells.
Summary Introduction
To describe: Whether some ulcers can heal on their own.
Introduction: Ulcer is the breaking of the inner wall of the stomach which protects the cells from acid produced in the stomach. In this situation, the patient feels inflammation and pain in the stomach. It can be controlled by giving antacids which provide sufficient time for the healing of cells.

In 2005, J. Robin Warren and Barry J. Marshall shared theNobel Prize in Medicine for discovering the bacteriumHelicobacter pylori and for establishing experimental proofthat it plays a major role in gastritis and peptic ulcer disease.The story began when Warren, a pathologist, noticed thatbacilli were associated with the tissues taken from patientssuffering from ulcers. Look up the history of this case and describeWarren’s first hypothesis. What sorts of evidence did ittake to create a credible theory based on it?
A cohort study examines the relative risk of gastric cancer for current users of acid pump inhibitors (PPIs) compared to non - users.PPI is frequently used to treat symptoms from the upper gastrointestinal tract such as reflux symptoms and discomfort/pain over the stomach. Which bias will you be the most concerned about?
A) Immortal time bias
B) Reverse causation bias
C)Differentiated misclassification of the exposure
D)Differentiated with the classification endpoint
E)Recall bias
The large intestine contains bacteria, such as E.coli, that synthesize vitamin K and some B vitamins and absorbed into the bloodstream.
Answer the following questions:
1. Describe the type of symbiosis best represented by E.coli and human large intestine.
2. When can E.coli become potentially pathogenic (disease-causing)? Explain briefly.

- Nodules found on the roots of leguminous plants like soybeans harbor bacteria that fix nitrogen. These nodules are an example of the intimate and specialized partnerships that have been established over time between prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Coevolution maintains these types of relationships because both participants benefit. Plants receive biologically useful forms of nitrogen needed for growth, and the bacteria reside in an oxygen-free environment required by enzymes involved in the nitrogen-fixing process. Humans also maintain intimate associations with beneficial bacteria and even archaea. In fact, the prokaryotic cells in and on human bodies outnumber the eukaryotic human cells by tenfold, according to some estimates. These microbial inhabitants help humans digest food, provide essential vitamins absorbed by the intestines, and even impact the immune system. The microbes that coevolve with plants arrive by infection of root tissue.
