Previous studies reported inconsistent results of the association between Helicobacter pylori infection and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).
A cohort study of 2,063 adults without NAFLD at baseline, who participated in a repeated health checkup including a 13C-urea breath test and abdominal ultrasonography, was conducted to evaluate the link between H. pylori infection and NAFLD development.
During a mean follow-up period of 1.7 years, we did not find a significant association between H. pylori infection and NAFLD (hazard ratio = 1.10 (0.86, 1.40), p = 0.4689). We also found that higher age, body mass index (BMI), systolic blood pressure (systolic BP), diastolic blood pressure (diastolic BP), fasting blood glucose, triglycerides, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) were risk factors, and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) was a protective factor for NAFLD development.
H. pylori infection might not be positively related to NAFLD development.
先前的研究报告了幽门螺杆菌感染与非酒精性脂肪性肝病(NAFLD)之间关联的不一致结果。
对2063名基线时无NAFLD的成年人进行队列研究,这些人参加了包括13C尿素呼气试验和腹部超声检查在内的重复健康检查,以评估幽门螺杆菌感染与NAFLD发生之间的联系。
在平均1.7年的随访期内,我们未发现幽门螺杆菌感染与NAFLD之间存在显著关联(风险比=1.10(0.86,1.40),p=0.4689)。我们还发现,年龄较大、体重指数(BMI)、收缩压(收缩压)、舒张压(舒张压)、空腹血糖、甘油三酯、总胆固醇、低密度脂蛋白胆固醇(LDL-C)、丙氨酸氨基转移酶(ALT)和天冬氨酸氨基转移酶(AST)是NAFLD发生的危险因素,而高密度脂蛋白胆固醇(HDL-C)是NAFLD发生的保护因素。
幽门螺杆菌感染可能与NAFLD的发生无正相关。
