Helicobacter pylori (Hp) infection is associated with a variety of diseases, such as benign lesions, precancerous lesions, and malignant lesions, especially diseases in the digestive system. Most people with Hp infection have mild early symptoms that are not easily noticed. Therefore, the diagnosis and treatment of Hp infection is particularly important. At present, there are many methods to detection Hp infection, but there is a lack of effective detection method with high sensitivity and specificity. On the basis of the existing detection methods, the modified silver nitrate staining method in this study improved the sensitivity and specificity of Hp detection.
