Association Between Helicobacter pylori Infection and Serum Iron Profile

Abstract: Introduction: Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is reported to be the most frequent cause of morbidity and mortality in cases of upper gastrointestinal (GI) diseases. There is paucity of research between the possible association of H. pylori and iron stores and iron deficiency anemia (IDA). In this study, we will determine if there is an association between serum total iron-binding capacity (TIBC), serum iron and ferritin levels, and H. pylori infection.Methods: This case-control study was conducted in… Show more

“…This result agrees withc studies 17 who reported that Serum ferritin level was significantly higher in participants with H. pylori infection (536.82 ± 117.0ng/dL vs. 391.31 ± 101.54 ng/ dL; p-value: <0.0001). While in β-thalassemia without HCV and H. pylori positive about 3 patients were less than 3000 ng/dL with percentage (75%) and 1 patient more or equal to 3000 ng/dL with a percentage of (25%)and p-value 0.0001** was highly significantly difference but in β-thalassemia without HCV and H. pylori negative about 28 patients were less than 3000 ng/dL with percentage (51.9%) and 26 patients more or equal to 3000 ng/dL with a percentage of (48.1%)and p-value 0.0001** highly significant difference.…”

“…Kishore et al found, after analysing data from 300 patients in Pakistan, that individuals with H. pylori infection had significantly lower mean blood iron levels than those without the illness (110.72 28.38 g/dL versus 162.5 21.18 g/dL; p 0.0001). [19]. Infection with Helicobacter pylori has been associated to conditions unrelated to the digestive system, such as iron deficiency anaemia (IDA) [20].…”

“…By examining the relationship between H. pylori infection and serum iron levels in a study conducted on 300 patients in Pakistan, Kishore et al also found that the mean serum iron level was significantly lower in participants with H. pylori infection compared to those who did not have H. pylori infection (110.72 ± 28.38 μg/dL vs. 162.5 ± 21.18 μg/dL; p -value: <0.0001) [ 33 ].…”
