Helicobacter pylori (Hp) is characterized as a gram-negative bacterium with microaerophilic metabolism, flagellated and helix-shaped that affects approximately 50% of the world population and, in some regions, this rate can exceed 80% [1,2]. Hp infection is well known to infect the epithelial tissue of the stomach, being involved with development of many stomach diseases, including gastric carcinoma [3,4]. However, less frequently, this bacterium might also be involved in the development of extragastric disorders, such as manifestations in the gastrointestinal tract, except stomach, autoimmune, dermatological, ophthalmic and cardiac diseases, in addition to neurological, respiratory and endocrine diseases [5,6]. The article titled “Helicobacter pylori infection: beyond gastric manifestations” shows these possibilities [7].

Viable but nonculturable (VBNC) bacteria are deeply dormant phenotypic variants that are characterized by a loss of culturability in conventional culture media, yet retain some viability markers [1]. Thus, low metabolic activity, nutrient uptake, membrane integrity, and respiration are all detectable in these dormant cells. In 1982, the VBNC state was first described for Escherichia coli and Vibrio cholerae [2]. Shortly afterwards, VBNC Salmonella enteriditis were found to regain culturability when placed under favourable conditions [3]. Since then, more than 100 bacterial species (including approximately 30 gastrointestinal bacteria) and some fungi have been reported to enter the VBNC state (see Dong et al. [4] and Li et al. [5] for excellent reviews). Among them are many food-borne, toxin-producing bacteria, such as Aeromonas hydrophila, Bacillus cereus, Campylobacter jejuni, E. coli O157:H7, Lactobacillus acetotolerans, Listeria monocytogenes, S. enterica, Shigella flexneri, V. cholerae, but also probiotic bacteria, such as Bifidobacterium animalis, Bf. longum and Bf. lactis [6].
可存活但不可培养(VBNC)细菌是一种深度休眠的表型变异,其特征是在传统培养基中丧失可培养性,但仍保留一些生存能力标记[1]。因此,在这些休眠细胞中可以检测到低代谢活性、营养摄取、膜完整性和呼吸作用。1982年,首次报道了大肠杆菌和霍乱弧菌的VBNC状态[2]。不久之后,发现在有利条件下,VBNC肠炎沙门氏菌可恢复培养[3]。从那时起,已有超过100种细菌(包括大约30种胃肠道细菌)和一些真菌被报道进入VBNC状态(优秀评论见Dong et al.[4]和Li et al.[5])。其中有许多食源性产毒细菌,如嗜水气单胞菌、蜡样芽孢杆菌、空肠弯曲杆菌、大肠杆菌O157:H7、醋酸耐受乳杆菌、单核增生李斯特菌、肠链球菌、福氏志贺氏菌、霍乱弧菌等,也有益生菌,如动物双歧杆菌、Bf。longum和Bf。lactis[6]。

As the new editor-in-chief of Archives of Gastroenterology Research (AGR) I cordially welcome all current readers of AGR and future contributors to AGR. Together with my editorial team of AGR we encourage scientists and clinicians involved in the care of patients with gastrointestinal diseases to submit their interesting reports to AGR with the aim to be published following fair evaluation by external peer reviewers. Gastroenterology with its broad range of subsegments and involving many organs is a fascinating and challenging area of research and clinical aspects. Highly appreciated are controversial issues, which help stimulate discussions under experts in the field, in line with the view that Gastroenterology shares features of a learning system. Welcomed are also non–controversial reports as long as they provide new aspects rather than confirmatory data.

How medications whose major biologic effect is to reduce bile acid synthesis favorably affect the course of a variety of cholestatic and metabolic liver diseases is not immediately apparent. Also, the most frequently used plasma biomarkers for evaluating benefit, alkaline phosphatase and conjugated bilirubin [1], provide different information. The former may be misleading with respect to the course of the disease and therefore it is important to focus on the pathophysiologic basis for its use.

This commentary further expands on the topics touched on in the study “Maternal knowledge of the risk of vertical transmission and offspring acquisition of hepatitis B”. We discuss in detail hepatitis B in pregnancy, with a focus on screening, treatment and vaccination of new-borns. We also examine why the global coverage of hepatitis B vaccination at birth is astoundingly low, despite our knowledge of its efficacy. Then, we provide insight into the barriers to providing appropriate screening in the USA, as well as the importance of maternal education in the fight against hepatitis B, particularly with regards to mother to child transmission.
