Blood lipid analysis before and after treatment in 128 patients with Helicobacter pylori infection

Objective To confirm the eradication of Helicobacter pylori(Hp)can make blood lipids to normal level and find a new method for the treatment of atherosclerosis by analyzing the changes of blood lipids in 128 patients before and after the eradication of Hp. Methods The changes of blood lipids in 128 patients with Hp infection before and after eradication of Hp from January 2014 to January 2018 were retrospectively analyzed in Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region People′s Hospital. Results Low density lipoprotein [(2.18±0.60)mmol/L vs.(3.12±0.65)mmol/L]and triglyceride [(1.23±0.51)mmol/L vs.(1.91±0.63)mmol/L]levels were significantly lower after Hp eradication than before treatment(P 0.05). Conclusion Eradication of Hp can improve the blood lipid level of patients to a certain extent. Key words: Helicobacter pylori; Blood lipids; Retrospective analysis
