Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the correlation between the severity of peptic ulcer bleeding (PUB) and the serum antibody typing of Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori).
Methods:From January 1, 2009 to December 31, 2018, at Guangzhou First People′s Hospital, 1 444 patients diagnosed with PUB and received H. pylori serum antibody test at the same time were enrolled and divided into high-risk group (324 cases) and low-risk group (1 120 cases) according to Forrest classification, and according to recurrent bleeding, the patients were divided into recurrent bleeding group (32 cases) and non-rebleeding group (1 412 cases). Serum H. pylori specific antibodies cytotoxin-associated gene A (CagA), vacuolating cytotoxin A (VacA) and urease were detected by protein array. The correlation between H. pylori positive rate, H. pylori type, PUB and rebleeding were analyzed. Chi-square test and logistic regression analysis were used for statistical analysis.
Results:Among 1 444 PUB patients, there were 709 patients with gastric ulcer bleeding (GUB) and 735 patients with duodenal ulcer bleeding (DUB). Previous history of peptic ulcer disease (odds ratio (OR)=1.501, P=0.006), the maximum diameter of ulcer over 2 cm (OR=2.484, P<0.01) and H. pylori infection (OR=1.508, P=0.005) were independent risk factors of the severity of PUB. The total H. pylori positive rate was 68.49% (989/1 444), H. pylori type Ⅰ was the main type. Of which, 61.34% (549/895) were CagA and VacA double positive strains, 31.73% (284/895) were VacA single positive bacteria and CagA single positive bacteria was only 6.93% (62/895). The positive rate of H. pylori of high-risk group was higher than that of low-risk group (75.31%, 244/324 vs. 66.52%, 745/1 120), and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=8.999, P=0.004). In addition, the more serious Forrest classification, the higher the detection rate of H. pylori, and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=11.840, P=0.037). There was no significant difference in the positive rate of H. pylori between recurrent bleeding group and non-rebleeding group (81.25%, 26/32 vs. 68.20%, 963/1 412; χ2=2.469, P>0.05). According to H. pylori antibody type, H. pylori type Ⅰ infection was mainly in both high-risk group and low-risk group. The positive rate of H. pylori type Ⅰ strain of high-risk group was higher than that of low-risk group (67.28%, 218/324 vs. 60.45%, 677/1 120), and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=4.986, P=0.026). There was no statistically significant difference in the positive rate of H. pylori between GUB group and DUB group (68.41%, 485/709 vs. 68.57%, 504/735; χ2=0.005, P>0.05).
Conclusions:The infection of H. pylori is positively correlated with the severity of PUB, but not correlated with early ulcer rebleeding. H. pylori type Ⅰ is the main pathogenic strain of GUB and DUB, and CagA and VacA double positive strain is the most common strain.
