RESUMO

We examined the role of Helicobacter pylori infection as a cause of recurrent abdominal pain (RAP) among Iranian children in a population-based case-control study to determine the association between H. pylori infection and RAP among schoolchildren. A total of 1558 children aged 6-13 years were examined. Children with RAP confirmed by the Apley and Naish criteria were selected; 145 cases were selected for inclusion and were compared with 145 healthy children recruited from the same area. Both groups underwent stool antigen testing. The prevalence of RAP in the children tested was 9.3%. Children with RAP had a higher H. pylori infection rate than the control group (58.6% vs 44.8%) (OR = 1.744; 95% CI: 1.095-2.776). There was no significant difference between the RAP symptoms in children with positive stool test, i.e. infected with H. pylori, and those whose tests were negative. We identified H. pylori infection in more than 55% of the case group. Therefore, H. pylori infection can be considered an important factor for RAP in children.

RESUMO

We examined the role of Helicobacter pylori infection as a cause of recurrent abdominal pain [RAP] among Iranian children in a population-based case-control study to determine the association between H. pylori infection and RAP among schoolchildren. A total of 1558 children aged 6-13 years were examined. Children with RAP confirmed by the Apley and Naish criteria were selected; 145 cases were selected for inclusion and were compared with 145 healthy children recruited from the same area. Both groups underwent stool antigen testing. The prevalence of RAP in the children tested was 9.3%. Children with RAP had a higher H. pylori infection rate than the control group [58.6% vs 44.8%] [OR = 1.744; 95% CI: 1.095-2.776]. There was no significant difference between the RAP symptoms in children with positive stool test, i.e. infected with H. pylori, and those whose tests were negative. We identified H. pylori infection in more than 55% of the case group. Therefore, H. pylori infection can be considered an important factor for RAP in children


Nous avons examiné le rôle de l'infection par Helicobacter pylori en tant que cause de douleur abdominale récurrente parmi des enfants iraniens au cours d'une étude cas-témoin populationnelle afin de déterminer l'association entre cette infection et la douleur abdominale récurrente chez les enfants scolarisés. Au total, 1558 enfants âgés de 6 à 13 ans ont été examinés. Des enfants souffrant d'une douleur abdominale récurrente confirmée selon les critères définis par Apley et Naish ont été sélectionnés: 145 cas répondant au critère d'inclusion ont été comparés avec 145 enfants en bonne santé de la même région. Les deux groupes ont été soumis à un test de recherche d'antigènes dans les selles. L'incidence de la douleur abdominale récurrente testée était de 9,3%. Les enfants ayant une douleur abdominale récurrente présentaient un taux d'infection par H. pylori plus élevé que le groupe témoin [58,6% contre 44,8% ; OR = 1,744 et IC à 95%: 1,095-2,776]. Il n'y avait pas de différence significative entre les symptômes de douleur abdominale récurrente chez les enfants ayant des coprocultures positives, donc une infection par H. pylori, et ceux dont les tests étaient négatifs. Nous avons identifié une infection par H. pylori chez plus de 55% d'enfants du groupe témoin. Par conséquent, l'infection par H. pylori peut être considérée comme un facteur important de douleur abdominale chez l'enfant
