About this trial
1. This study aims to compare the efficacy of empirical vonoprazan-based therapy versus susceptibility-guided vonoprazan-based therapy for third-line eradication of H. pylori. 2. We also plan to explore the impact of eradication therapy on gut microbiota, fecal antibiotic resistance, and metabolic parameters before and after treatment.
