Unadjusted data was not statistically significant .
The other problems of psychological intervention included low recruitment and high drop out rate , which has been shown to be greater in patients receiving group therapy .
There is insufficient evidence from this review to confirm the efficacy of psychological intervention in NUD
BACKGROUND Studies have also shown that non-ulcer dyspepsia ( NUD ) patients have higher scores of anxiety , depression , neurotism , chronic tension , hostility , hypochondriasis and tendency to be more pessimistic when compared with the community controls .
However , the role of psychological interventions in NUD remains uncertain .
OBJECTIVES This review aims to determine the effectiveness of psychological interventions including psychotherapy , psychodrama , cognitive behavioural therapy , relaxation therapy and hypnosis in the improvement of either individual or global dyspepsia symptom scores and quality of life scores in patients with NUD .
The cost‐effectiveness of population Helicobacter pylori screening and treatment: a Markov model using economic data from a randomized controlled trial
Economic models have suggested that  population Helicobacter pylori screening and treatment may be a cost‐effective method of reducing mortality from gastric cancer . These models are conservative as they do not consider that the programme may reduce health service peptic ulcer and other dyspepsia costs . We have evaluated the economic impact of  population H. pylori screening and treatment  over 2 years in a r and omized controlled trial and have incorporated the results into an economic model exploring the impact of H. pylori eradication on peptic ulcer disease and gastric cancer
