Overview

National cross-sectional study reveals higher HbA1c linked to H. pylori infection risk in women, suggesting metabolic implications.

Key Points

  • This study examines the relationship between Helicobacter pylori infection and metabolic disturbances in U.S. women, focusing on hypertension and glucose metabolism.
  • Analyzed data from the 1999 to 2000 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey
  • Categorized women as seronegative or seropositive based on H. pylori antibodies
  • Applied multivariable logistic regression to determine predictors of seropositivity.
  • H. pylori seroprevalence was 41.37% among 539 women.
  • Elevated HbA1c levels showed a strong association with H. pylori infection (OR = 1.75, 95% CI: 1.11-2.76).
  • Women in the highest HbA1c quartile had 2.14-fold higher odds of infection compared to the lowest quartile (95% CI: 1.25-3.67).
