摘要
Malaysia epitomizes the multiraciality of a South East Asian country where three major Asian races: Malay, Chinese and Indians live together. The distribution of Hp infection amongst the differences in Malaysia show an interesting pattern with the Malays having a consistently low prevalence compared to the Chinese and Indians. In our seroepidemiological studies and in a large endoscopic survey, Chinese and Indian race remained as independent predictive factors for H.pylori infection, after adjusting for possible confounding factors such as social class and age.
