Fig. 2 Flowchart showing the Pa eradiation success at the end of treatment, relapse rate within 6months and Pa status according to the Leeds criteria. Black numbers between brackets concern patients with follow-up<24months. Therapy for patients with failed eradication at the end of treatment (cross over or IV) is not shown in the figure (see Results section). Additional therapy was given in the interval of 6months to 2years outside the study based on symptoms and eventual recurrence of Pa.

Fig. 3 Kaplan Meier survival curve showing the Pa free survival. Median time to recurrence of any Pa was 9months (95% CI 0.0–19.0) for CC and 5months (95% CI 1.7–8.3) for the T group (Log rank p=0.608).
