Abstract:
Objective:To examine the relationship between fasting blood glucose(FBG)levels and H. pylori infection, as well as their impact on eradication and recurrence rates.Methods:A total of 1 584 patients with type 2 diabetes, ranging in age from 44 to 91 years old(mean age of 66.6±7.6 years), were included in this study conducted at the Physical Examination Center of the First Hospital of Lanzhou University between March 2010 and December 2019.Of the total participants, 1 063(67.1%)were male and 521(32.9%)were female.Logistic regression analysis was performed to investigate the impact of age, gender, fasting blood glucose, and H. pylori infection on the patients.In the study, 263 patients in the euglycemic control group(HbA1c<7%), 271 patients in the poor glycemic control group(HbA1c≥7%), and 269 patients in the control group underwent H. pylori eradication using bismuth-containing quadruple therapy, and the eradication efficacy, adverse reactions, and recurrence rates were compared after 1 year.Results:In patients with type 2 diabetes, the infection rate of H. pylori was found to be 48.2%.Further regression analysis revealed that poor glycemic control increased the risk of H. pylori infection( OR=1.611, 95% CI: 1.269~2.045, P<0.01). However, the constituent ratio and infection rate of different hypoglycemic drug groups did not show any significant statistical difference.The eradication rate of H. pylori was 90.9%, and there was no significant difference in the eradication rate among different blood glucose groups and control groups.However, after 1 year, the recurrence rate was 3.8%, with a higher rate observed in the poor glycemic control group compared to the euglycemic control group and the control group( P<0.05). There was a statistically significant difference in constipation as the main side effect of eradication therapy between the diabetic group and the control group[25.1%(134/253) vs.16.4%(44/269), P<0.01]. Conclusions:Diabetic patients with fasting hyperglycemia or poor glycemic control are at an increased risk of H. pylori infection.Additionally, these patients have a higher risk of recurrence after eradication.Therefore, it is important for clinicians to closely monitor and manage glycemic control in diabetic patients to reduce the risk of H. pylori infection and improve treatment outcomes.
