Trial summary

Tonsillar disorders are frequent In both pediatric and adult otolaryngological practice, . Numerous disorders that damage tonsillar tissue necessitate tonsillectomy. Tonsillectomy is typically required for recurrent tonsillitis. (Mani et al., 2019). Read more about this study

About this study

Tonsillar disorders are frequent In both pediatric and adult otolaryngological practice, . Numerous disorders that damage tonsillar tissue necessitate tonsillectomy. Tonsillectomy is typically required for recurrent tonsillitis. (Mani et al., 2019).

According to studies, the mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) of the stomach and tonsillar tissue in the Waldeyer's ring are both lymphoid tissues (Ma et al., 2018).

One of the most prevalent and frequent conditions in otorhinolaryngology is chronic tonsillitis, which is mostly brought on by bacterial infection. Chronic tonsillitis attacks can affect not only the tonsillar tissue but also can contribute to the emergence and progression of systemic disorders (Alrayah.,2023).

A gram-negative, urease-producing bacterium called Helicobacter pylori colonizes the mucosa of the digestive tract. It has been linked to gastric malignancies, notably mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma, as well as gastric ulcers and duodenal ulcers (Kusters et al., 2006).

Being tested
Rapid urease test for h pylori

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Rapid urease test for h pyloriDiagnostic test

    Also called histopathological study for removed tonsillar tissue after tonsillectomy

    Tonsillectomy will be done with the dissection method and one tonsil per patient will be collected. A 2 mm gross specimen will be washed with normal saline. The specimen will be placed in a test tube well containing Rapid Urease Enzyme (GASTRO CURE SYSTEM RUT DRY TEST Batch No. A1060).

    The initial color will be read at 0 min. Subsequent color changes will be read at 30 min, 6 hours, and 24 hours. Any color change from the initial yellow color to either pink or red will be recorded as positive. Any test that will be remained yellow after 24 hours will be recorded as negative.

    Tonsillar tissue samples will be fixed in 10% formalin for 24 h Each slide will be separately evaluated for the presence or absence of Helicobacter-like organisms at a high-power magnification

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. positive or negative h pylori infection in tonsillar tissue after tonsillectomy

    Tonsillectomy will be done with the dissection method and one tonsil per patient will be collected. A 2 mm gross specimen will be washed with normal saline. The specimen will be placed in a test tube well containing Rapid Urease Enzyme (GASTRO CURE SYSTEM RUT DRY TEST Batch No. A1060).

    The initial color will be read at 0 min. Subsequent color changes will be read at 30 min, 6 hours, and 24 hours. Any color change from the initial yellow color to either pink or red will be recorded as positive. Any test that will be remained yellow after 24 hours will be recorded as negative. No readings will be taken after 24 hours.

    Histopathology:

    Tonsillar tissue samples will be fixed in 10% formalin for 24 h. Each slide will be separately evaluated for the presence or absence of Helicobacter-like organisms at a high-power magnification

    Measured: 6 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Rapid urease test for h pylori in people with Helicobacter Pylori Infection in Patients With Chronic Tonsillits, run by Sohag University at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

What does the primary outcome measure?

positive or negative h pylori infection in tonsillar tissue after tonsillectomy (time frame: 6 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
