      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: Patients are randomly randomized into blocks of 6 and 10 patients by a computer program and entered into the corresponding group of pre-prepared sets of numbers, respectively, Blinding description: Depending on the diagnosis, patients will undergo eradication study and treatment, but will not be informed of the type of treatment (receiving the first group or the second group). The information of the patients of the two groups, with a non-specific name that is a definition of the study groups (for example, groups A and B) and only the main researcher knows the definition (Bismuth-containing quadruple and B: Concomitant quadruple), will be available to the analyzer. Therefore, the analyzer is not aware of the type of drugs received in each group.</study_design>
