Abstract:
Objective To investigate Helicobacter pylori (HP) infection status and influencing factors of electrical power system employees in Shanghai. Methods A total of 29 986 employees in Shanghai electrical power system who underwent physical examination were selected as the research subjects, and received 13C-urea breath test (13C-UBT). The HP infection rate was recorded. Data including gender, age, body mass index, smoking history, drinking history, medication history, educational level, consumption of high-salt and high-fat food, presence of vomiting, and awareness of HP infection related treatment were also collected. The relationship between these factors and HP infection was analyzed. Results 13C-UBT showed that of 29,986 subjects examined, 17 580 were HP positive, and the positive rate was 58.63%. There was significant difference in HP infection rate between men and women (P < 0.05). There was a significant difference in HP infection rate among different age groups (25-40, 41 ~ 55 and 56-70 years old) (P <0.05). People who consumed high-salt and high-fat food and those who displayed no significant difference in HP infection rate (P <0.05). There were significant differences in the HP infection rate between people with and without history of HP infection (P <0.05), between smokers and non-smokers (P <0.05), and between those who knew that HP infection needed treatment and those who did not (P < 0.05). No significant difference was found in age, body mass index, educational level, drinking history and medication history (P>0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that male, ignorance of HP infection related treatment, smoking and history of family HP infection were independent influencing factors for HP infection. Conclusion The HP infection rate was relatively high among employees in Shanghai electrical power system, and the main influencing factors of HP infection were male, ignorance of HP infection related treatment, smoking and history of HP family infection.
