Comparative Efficacy and Safety of Potassium-Competitive Acid Blocker-Based Dual, Triple, and Quadruple Regimens for First-Line Helicobacter pylori Infection Treatment: A Systematic Review and Network Meta-Analysis

In this NWM concerning the comparative efficacy and safety of P-CAB-based dual, triple, and quadruple regimens for the first-line H. pylori infection treatment, the overall results showed that P-CAB-based dual treatment ranked first for efficacy with the best-integrated efficacy-safety profile. This is of importance, since the dual regimens overcome the crucial issue of clarithromycin resistance. Consequently, these findings are expected to be useful in helping clinical decision making and future guidelines.
