胃癌是我国最常见的恶性肿瘤之一,据专家预测,到2000年时,我国胃癌发病率将仅次于男性的肺癌、女性的乳腺癌,位居第二位。传统的看法是,亚硝基化物可致胃癌,但国必须“擒贼先擒王”,捉拿和消灭幽门螺杆菌。但迄今尚未发现任何单一的药物可以有效根除幽门螺杆菌。因此,对该菌引起的胃病(胃炎、消化性溃疡),学者们多主张联合用药来治 Gastric cancer is one of the most common malignancies in China. According to the prediction of experts, by the year 2000, the incidence of gastric cancer in China will rank second only to male lung cancer and female breast cancer. The traditional view is that nitrosates can cause gastric cancer, but the country must “dispose the thief first” and capture and eradicate Helicobacter pylori. However, to date, no single drug has been found to effectively eradicate Helicobacter pylori. Therefore, scholars have advocated a combination of drugs to treat gastric diseases (gastritis, peptic ulcers) caused by the bacteria.
