Abstract
AIM
To investigate the relationship between Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection and ulcerative colitis (UC).
METHODS
One hundred and forty-six patients with UC diagnosed by colonoscopy and pathological examination were selected as a UC group. In addition, 150 volunteers who had no obvious colonic lesions as detected by electronic colonoscopy were collected as a control group. Rapid urease test and histopathological biopsy were used to detect H. pylori infection.
RESULTS
In UC Group, 146 cases, 27 positive, H. pylori infection positive rate of 18.49%, control group of 150 cases, 64 positive, H. pylori infection positive rate 42.67%, UC group is significantly lower than the control group, the difference is statistically significant (P < 0.05). According to lesion Range: Rectal Group 27 cases, 7 positive, H. pylori positive rate is 21.88%, left half colon group 48 cases, 9 cases positive, H. pylori positive rate is 18.75%, extensive colon group 66 cases, 11 cases positive, H. pylori positive rate is 16.67%. There was no statistically significant difference among the three groups (P > 0.05). Active period of UC patients in 117 cases (80.14%), remission period of UC patients in 29 cases. The positive rate of H. pylori infection was the highest in remission period (37.93%), the lowest rate of severe activity was (6.25%), the difference was obvious (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION
H. pylori infection may have a preventive effect on the grouth of UC, with the severity of the disease increasing, the H. pylori positive rate decreased. In addition, it will be very important to strengthen the follow-up compliance of UC patients.
