Prospective double-blind trial of duodenal ulcer relapse after eradication of Campylobacter pylori.

100 consecutive patients with both duodenal ulcer and Campylobacter pylori infection were followed up to see whether eradication of C pylori affected ulcer healing or relapse. Patients were randomly assigned to 8 weeks of treatment with cimetidine or colloidal bismuth subcitrate (CBS), with tinidazole or placebo being given concurrently from days 1 to 10, inclusive. Endoscopy, biopsy, and culture were done at entry, in weeks 10, 22, 34, and 62, and whenever symptoms recurred. There was no maintenance therapy. C pylori persisted in all of the cimetidine-treated patients and in 95% of those treated with cimetidine/tinidazole, but was eradicated in 27% of the CBS/placebo group and 70% of the CBS/tinidazole group. When C pylori persisted, 61% of duodenal ulcers healed and 84% relapsed. When C pylori was cleared 92% of ulcers healed (p less than 0.001) and only 21% relapsed during the 12 month follow-up period (p less than 0.0001).

From authorship to contributorship. Promoting integrity in research publication.

Shared authorship in nursing research presents practical and ethical dilemmas and does not effectively capture individual research participation and accountability. This study, which defined author contributions and practices in multiauthored nursing research, contributed to a better understanding of contemporary author participation and the inherent challenges faced by nurse scholars in determining authorship credit. A method of "contributorship" is proposed which would delineate individual contributions to the research project while maintaining professional integrity, scientific accountability, and scholarly recognition.
