“…However, the results indicate that maternal H. pylori infection causes growth restriction of pups during milk feeding and after weaning. This is consistent with other studies [4,16,[27][28][29] suggesting that H. pylori infection is associated with short stature, although the mechanism is unclear. A possible mechanism is that the accompanied iron deficiency anemia caused by H. pylori infection may cause a delay in pubertal growth [4].…”

Association Between Helicobacter pylori Infection in Mothers and Birth Weight

Helicobacter pylori infection may cause intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR). However, it is unknown whether the growth of children from H. pylori-infected mothers is also affected or whether transmission of infection from mother to child occurs. This study aimed to determine if maternal H. pylori infection was associated with IUGR and low birth weight in a mouse model, and whether transmission of infection from mother to infant occurs. Female C57BL/6 mice were inoculated with H. pylori (n = 18) or water (control; n = 18) via gavage. Mice were mated at 6 weeks postinfection, with half of the mice sacrificed after 2 weeks of gestation. The remaining mice gave birth and a third of the litter was weighed and sacrificed at birth, during milk feeding (1.5 weeks), and during solid feeding (4 weeks). Stomachs of all mice and whole foetuses were cultured for the presence of H. pylori. There were no differences in litter size or foetus weight between control and H. pylori-infected mice. Pups from infected mothers had a lower weight during milk feeding (control, 5.91 +/- 0.23 g; H. pylori, 4.59 +/- 0.16 g; p < 0.05) and solid feeding (control, 12.73 +/- 0.58 g; H. pylori, 10.01 +/- 1.02 g; p < 0.05). H. pylori was not detected by culture in the pups at any age. H. pylori infection in mothers was associated with a decrease in infant weight during milk feeding and after weaning. Transmission of infection from mother to infant was not detected by culture, suggesting that decreased baby weight may be due to decreased milk supply or altered nutrition from the mother.

“…Several cross-sectional studies have reported an inverse association between growth and H. pylori infection. 7,11 However, some of them included children attending outpatient clinics [12][13][14] while others did not adequately control confounding socio-economic variables or had small sample sizes. 15 In addition, most studies were not conducted in randomised populations in developing countries.…”
