BRS Path p.243 states that H. Pylori-associated gastritis often has increased gastric acid secretion.
BRS Phys p. 234 states that H+ secretion is decreased, not increased (as might be assumed).
Robbins p. 792 states-"Individuals with advanced gastritis from H. pylori or other environmental causes are often hypochlorhydric, owing to parietal cell damage and atrophy of body-fundic mucosa."
So, H+ secretion is decreased in H. pylori chronic gastritis.
