Systematic review and meta-analysis: Effect of Helicobacter pylori eradication on chronic spontaneous urticaria.

The results of this meta-analysis show that HP might be associated with the occurrence and persistence of CSU. The effectiveness of HP eradication therapy in suppressing CSU symptoms was significant. Interestingly, we found that resolution of CSU was not associated with successful eradication of HP infection. CSU Patients who were undergone antibiotic therapy for HP eradication showed significant higher CSU remission with or without HP eradication. Further studies are recommended to evaluate the mechanisms associated with relation of HP with CSU.
