Abstract
Objective: To study the association of H. pylori infection with colorectal adenomas.
Methods: Web searches of PubMed, Embase, and Scopus databases for randomized controlled trials, class-experimental studies, and cohort studies on the association between H. pylori and colorectal adenomas were performed from May 2000 to May 2023. Literature was screened based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, data were extracted and evaluated for quality, and statistical analyses were performed using RevMan 5.2 software.
Results: A total of 15 studies were included, and meta-analysis showed a statistically significant difference between colorectal neoplastic polyp cases in the H. pylori-positive and H. pylori-negative groups [OR=1.80, 95%CI: (1.31, 2.47), P < .01, I2 = 95%]. Analysis based on subgroups of different H. pylori detection methods showed that the correlation between H. pylori infection and colorectal polyp incidence is not affected by their detection methods, with serological detection subgroup: [OR=0.13, 95%CI: (0.05, 0.21), P < .01, I2 = 88%], and non-serological detection subgroup: [OR=0.13, 95%CI: (0.04, 0.22), P < .01, I2 = 95%]. Subgroup analysis of pathological types showed that H. pylori infection is not significantly associated with the development of non-neoplastic polyps [OR=1.47, 95%CI: 0.98-2.22, P = .06], whereas it is correlated with the development of neoplastic polyps [95%CI: 1.69-3.22, P < .01]. In the subgroup analysis of geographic differences in the population, H. pylori infection was correlated with the development of colorectal polyps in different geographic populations (P < .01).
Conclusion: H. pylori infection is a risk factor for colorectal polyp neoplasia, its infection is associated with colorectal neoplasia, and the correlation is not affected by the different methods of H. pylori detection and the different geographic regions of the population.
期刊介绍:
Launched in 1995, Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine has a mission to promote the art and science of integrative medicine and a responsibility to improve public health. We strive to maintain the highest standards of ethical medical journalism independent of special interests that is timely, accurate, and a pleasure to read. We publish original, peer-reviewed scientific articles that provide health care providers with continuing education to promote health, prevent illness, and treat disease. Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine was the first journal in this field to be indexed in the National Library of Medicine. In 2006, 2007, and 2008, ATHM had the highest impact factor ranking of any independently published peer-reviewed CAM journal in the United States—meaning that its research articles were cited more frequently than any other journal’s in the field.
Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine does not endorse any particular system or method but promotes the evaluation and appropriate use of all effective therapeutic approaches. Each issue contains a variety of disciplined inquiry methods, from case reports to original scientific research to systematic reviews. The editors encourage the integration of evidence-based emerging therapies with conventional medical practices by licensed health care providers in a way that promotes a comprehensive approach to health care that is focused on wellness, prevention, and healing. Alternative Therapies in Health and Medicine hopes to inform all licensed health care practitioners about developments in fields other than their own and to foster an ongoing debate about the scientific, clinical, historical, legal, political, and cultural issues that affect all of health care.
