ABSTRACT
Background:
There are many studies highlight the association between Helicobacter pylori seropositivity with typhoid fever in human populations and there is no study in Iraq.Aim:
Our study designed to estimate the correlation between seroprevelace of H. pylori and Typhoid fever in clinically examined patients as dyspeptic and typhoid fever infected.Methods:
From May (2016) to February (2018), a total of 213 patients (134 females and 79 male) attending an enterology outpatient clinic in AL-Najaf province, Iraq. The patients with age range from 10 to 90 years and with symptoms of dyspepsia and typhoid fever (as fever, diarrhea, headache), were referred to serologic diagnosis of antibodies against H. pylori (IgG) and Typhoid (IgG and/or IgM), using the Rapid Tests Cassette.Results:
Of a total of 213 clinically examined as dyspeptic and typhoid fever infected patients,134 (63.0%) were females and 79 (37.0%) were males.In this study, 82 (38.5 %) of 213 patients were seropositive for typhoid fever and 131 patients were seronegative. Moreover, 128 (60.1 %) of 213 patients were seropositive for H.pylori IgG (51 case,39.8%, typhoid seropositive, and 77 case,60.2%, typhoid seronegative) and 82 were seronegative. The serologic co-infection diagnosed in 51 (24.0%) patients. The seropositivity of typhoid fever was higher in H. pylori seropositive patients, co-infections (62.2 %), than H. pylori seronegative patients (37.8%). The co-infection was more in female (64.7%) than male (35.3%). In respect of age H. pylori seropositivity was more prevelance (25.8%) in 30s age group where as co-infection was more prevalence in 40s age group (29.4%). But the statistical analysis showed insignificant association of H. pylori with typhoid fever (P value = 0.6203), gender (P value = 0.4770) and age groups (P value = 0.0745).Conclusion:
Our study indicates that H. pylori seropositive dyspepsia more susceptiple to typhoid fever particularly in female and 40s ages and suggest there was insignificant relationship amongst seropositivity of H. pylori and typhoid fever within dyspepsia patient
