Association of Helicobacter pylori infection with the risk of metabolic syndrome and insulin resistance: an updated systematic review and meta-analysis. Diabetol Metab Syndr 2021; 13:145. [PMID: 34922625 PMCID: PMC8684139 DOI: 10.1186/s13098-021-00765-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/06/2021] [Accepted: 11/30/2021] [Indexed: 12/16/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Conflicting results of recent studies on the association between Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection and the risk of insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome explored the need for updated meta-analysis on this issue. Therefore, this systematic review aimed to estimate the pooled effect of H. pylori infection on the risk of insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome. METHODS To identify case-control studies and cohort studies evaluating the association of H. pylori infection with insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome, a comprehensive literature search was performed from international databases including Medline (PubMed), Web of Sciences, Scopus, EMBASE, and CINHAL from January 1990 until January 2021. We used odds ratio with its 95% confidence interval to quantify the effect of case-control studies and risk ratio with its 95% CI for the effect of cohort studies. RESULTS 22 studies with 206,911 participants were included for meta-analysis. The pooled estimate of odds ratio between H. pylori infection and metabolic syndrome in case-control studies was 1.19 (95% CI 1.05-1.35; I2 = 0%), and in cohort studies, the pooled risk ratio was 1.31 (95% CI 1.13-1.51; I2 = 0%). Besides, case-control studies showed the pooled odds ratio of 1.54 (95% CI 1.19-1.98; I2 = 6.88%) for the association between H. pylori infection and insulin resistance. CONCLUSION In this meta-analysis, the results showed that there was a possibility of metabolic syndrome and insulin resistance in case of H. pylori infection.

Abstract
Sickness behavior is the common denominator for a plethora of changes in normal behavioral routines and systemic metabolism during an infection. Typical symptoms include temperature, muscle weakness, and loss of appetite. Whereas we experience these changes as a pathology, in fact they are a carefully orchestrated response mediated by the immune system. Its purpose is to optimize immune cell functionality against pathogens whilst minimizing viral replication in infected cells. Sickness behavior is controlled at several levels, most notably by the central nervous system, but also by other organs that mediate systemic homeostasis, such as the liver and adipose tissue. Nevertheless, the changes mediated by these organs are ultimately initiated by immune cells, usually through local or systemic secretion of cytokines. The nature of infection determines which cytokine profile is induced by immune cells and therefore which sickness behavior ensues. In context of infection, sickness behavior is typically beneficial. However, inappropriate activation of the immune system may induce adverse aspects of sickness behavior. For example, tissue stress caused by obesity may result in chronic activation of the immune system, leading to lasting changes in systemic metabolism. Concurrently, metabolic disease prevents induction of appropriate sickness behavior following viral infection, thus impairing the normal immune response. In this article, we will revisit recent literature that elucidates both the benefits and the negative aspects of sickness behavior in context of viral infection.

Abstract
The recent pandemic of COVID-19 has made abundantly clear that Type 2 diabetes (T2D) increases the risk of more frequent and more severe viral infections. At the same time, pro-inflammatory cytokines of an anti-viral Type-I profile promote insulin resistance and form a risk factor for development of T2D. What this illustrates is that there is a reciprocal, detrimental interaction between the immune and endocrine system in the context of T2D. Why these two systems would interact at all long remained unclear. Recent findings indicate that transient changes in systemic metabolism are induced by the immune system as a strategy against viral infection. In people with T2D, this system fails, thereby negatively impacting the antiviral immune response. In addition, immune-mediated changes in systemic metabolism upon infection may aggravate glycemic control in T2D. In this review, we will discuss recent literature that sheds more light on how T2D impairs immune responses to viral infection and how virus-induced activation of the immune system increases risk of development of T2D.

Abstract
The gut microbiota is a complex ecosystem that is involved in the development and preservation of the immune system, energy homeostasis and nutritional status of the host. The crosstalk between gut microbiota and the host cells modulates host physiology and metabolism through different mechanisms. Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is known to reside in the gastric mucosa, induce inflammation, and alter both gastric and intestinal microbiota resulting in a broad spectrum of diseases, in particular metabolic syndrome-related disorders. Infection with H. pylori have been shown to affect production level and physiological regulation of the gut metabolic hormones such as ghrelin and leptin which are involved in food intake, energy expenditure and body mass. In this study, we reviewed and discussed data from the literature and follow-up investigations that links H. pylori infection to alterations of the gut microbiota and metabolic hormone levels, which can exert broad influences on host metabolism, energy homeostasis, behavior, appetite, growth, reproduction and immunity. Also, we discussed the strong potential of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) as an innovative and promising investigational treatment option for homeostasis of metabolic hormone levels to overcome H. pylori-associated metabolic syndrome-related disorders.

Abstract
Background: Several conducted studies have reported a higher and more frequent Helicobacter pylori infection rate in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and its association between H. pylori infection and T2DM. Materials and Methods: A case and control study was conducted based on 529 T2DM patients and 529 control. H. pylori was assessed by Serum anti-H. pylori immunoglobulin G (IgG) and IgA. Furthermore, patients were investigated for fasting blood glucose (FBG) levels, glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), serum cholesterol, and other biochemistry parameters. Results: The findings showed a positive significantly higher antibody titer for H. pylori infection (IgA > 250) in diabetic patients (50.7%) compared to controls (38.2%) (P < 0.001). Similarly, H. pylori infection for IgG > 300 titer was higher in T2DM patients (73.5%) compared to controls 61.8%) (P < 0.001). Further, the mean values were statistically significant diabetes with H. pylori infection for IgG > 300 titer and IgA > 250 titer, regarding Vitamin D, HbA1C (P < 0.001), FBG, calcium, creatinine, total cholesterol, LHDL, triglyceride levels, uric acid, bilirubin, thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), and systolic and diastolic blood pressure. The diabetic patients showed higher prevalence rate of symptoms than controls included: hypertension (14.3%), vomiting (15.5%), muscular symptoms (35.2%), bloating/distension (13.2%), abdominal pain (17%), nausea (9.6%), anemia (17%), kidneys (20.8%), chronic bronchitis (14.7%), gastrointestinal (23.8%), and diarrhea (20.4%). Conclusions: The current study revealed that H. pylori infections were significantly higher in diabetic patients compared to controls. Furthermore, T2DM patients infected with H. pylori positive reported a higher prevalence rate of symptoms than H. pylori negative.

Abstract
A number of studies has confirmed that the epidemiology of Helicobacter pylori is changing worldwide, with a decrease especially in developed countries. Nevertheless, since this gram-negative bacterium infects almost 50% of the world's population, it remains a global problem. Beyond its role in the pathogenesis of the main gastroduodenal diseases, including gastritis, peptic ulcer and gastric cancer, Helicobacter pylori has been suspected to be involved in several extra-gastroduodenal disorders. Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) present gastric mucosal injuries and dyspepsia more often than the general population. However, the reported relationship between CKD and Helicobacter pylori infection is conflicting. In fact, in this population these conditions have a multifactorial pathogenesis and Helicobacter pylori infection could play a limited role in their development. Nevertheless, while it seems that the prevalence of the bacterium is lower in patients with CKD than in controls, Helicobacter pylori has been shown to be associated to an increased occurrence of proteinuria in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. This narrative review analyzes the results of recent literature in this field with particular focus on data reported by meta-analyses.

Abstract
Research on Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori), a pathogenic bacterium that is widespread among humans, is investigating the medical implications of the infection in many fields beyond gastroenterology. Because of the ubiquitous presence of the infection, there is an increasing interest in finding a relationship between this bacterium and diabetes mellitus (DM). It is not clear whether a significant relation between H. pylori and DM exists, whether the infection influences diabetes or vice versa, and the mechanisms underlying such a relationship. This review provides an analysis of new insights from studies published in more recent years. New research on this topic concentrated on the common pathogenic aspects between the bacterium and insulin resistance or autoimmunity, on the role of the bacterial infection in cardiovascular risk and whether the infection worsen glycemic outcomes in patients with DM. Research in this field still has to conclusively assess and explain the existence of a possible relationship between H. pylori and DM. Some studies have reached antithetic conclusions. Unless more robust data from studies using consistent research methods become available in the near future, people with diabetes should be compared to the general population when it comes to investigating and treating the presence of H. pylori.

Abstract
Purpose: To assess the difference of the first-line therapy for Helicobacter pylori in patients with or without type 2 diabetes (DM) and to investigate the clinical factors influencing treatment outcomes. Patients and methods: In total, 719 patients with H. pylori infection were treated with 7-day standard first-line triple therapy, of whom 182 did and 537 did not have DM. Propensity score matched at a 1:2 ratio - for age, sex and body mass index was performed for the two groups, yielding a DM group with 147 patients and a non-DM group with 249 matched controls for analysis. Urea breath test was performed 6-8 weeks after treatment. Clinical and laboratory parameters were collected for identifying factors associated with failed eradication. Results: H. Pylori was eradicated in 74.1% (95% confidence interval [CI] =66.2-81.0) of the DM group and 85.3% (95% CI =80.8-89.4) of the non-DM group (p=0.005). Of 51 gastric biopsy samples cultured for H. pylori, 41 were positive. In the DM group, the rates of resistance to amoxicillin, clarithromycin, levofloxacin, and tetracycline were 0%, 50.0%, 50.0% and 0%, respectively. In the non-DM group, the comparable proportions were 2.9%, 17.1%, 22.9%, and 0%, respectively. Univariate analysis revealed that DM (Odds ratio [OR], 1.771, 95% CI, 1.167-2.668, p=0.006), clarithromycin resistance (OR, 15.273; 95% CI, 1.687-138.269; p=0.015), and amoxicillin resistance (OR, 4.672; 95% CI, 2.431-8.979; p<0.001) were independently associated with failure to eradicate H. pylori. Multivariate analysis showed that clarithromycin resistance was the major factor independently associated with failure of eradication (OR, 25.472; 95% CI, 1.549-418.956; p=0.023). Conclusions: First-line H. pylori eradication rates in patients with DM were significantly lower than in those without DM, although neither group achieved >90% eradication.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) eradication rate of type 2 diabetic patients with non-diabetic subjects. METHODS In this multicenter prospective observational study, H. pylori-infected subjects were enrolled from three university-affiliated hospitals. Eradication regimen was triple therapy with standard dose of proton pump inhibitors (b.i.d), amoxicillin (1.0 g b.i.d), and clarithromycin (500 mg b.i.d) for 7 days. Urea breath test was performed 4 weeks after treatment. Various clinical and laboratory data were collected for identification of factors associated with successful eradication. RESULTS Totally, 144 subjects were enrolled and 119 (85 non-diabetic and 34 diabetic patients) were finally analyzed. Eradication rate was 75.6% and there was no difference between diabetic patients and non-diabetic subjects (73.5% vs 76.5%, p value: 0.814). Adverse drug reactions were reported in 44.5% of patients. In multivariate analysis for predicting H. pylori eradication in diabetic patients, HbA1c (⩾7.5%) was a significant factor affecting eradication rate (adjusted odds ratio: 0.100, 95% confidence interval: 0.011-0.909, p value: 0.041). CONCLUSION Diabetes itself is not a major factor affecting H. pylori eradication. However, poor glucose control may harmfully affect H. pylori eradication.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) patients are susceptible to Helicobacter pylori (HP), and it has been reported that the occurrence of proteinuria is associated with HP infection in T2DM patients; however, this view remains controversial. This meta-analysis aimed to explore the association between HP infection and the occurrence of proteinuria in T2DM patients. In addition, we hope to provide some recommendations to readers in clinical or related fields. METHODS Our meta-analysis was conducted with the methodology of the Cochrane Collaboration. Search strategies were formulated by relevant professionals. Case-control studies that compared the occurrence of proteinuria in T2DM patients with and without HP infection were involved in our meta-analysis. Relevant English or Chinese studies were searched on online databases before 2018, including PubMed, the Cochrane library, Medline, Google Scholar, the China National Infrastructure, and Wanfang database. The search strategies were "diabetic proteinuria, diabetic microalbuminuria, diabetic albuminuria, diabetic kidney disease, diabetic renal dysfunction, diabetic renal disease, diabetic nephropathy, diabetic complications, and diabetic mellitus, combined with HP." The quality of these involved articles was separately assessed by two investigators using the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS). Odds ratios (ORs) and associated 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were extracted and pooled using fixed-effects models. RESULTS Seven studies involving 1029 participants were included. The quality of these seven articles was all above five stars as assessed by NOS, and there was no significant publication bias in our meta-analysis. We found that T2DM patients with HP infection had a 2.00 times higher risk of the occurrence of proteinuria than patients without HP infection (OR: 2.00, 95% CI: 1.48-2.69). CONCLUSIONS Our analysis showed that HP infection was associated with the occurrence of proteinuria in T2DM patients. HP radical surgery might be a therapeutic option for protecting kidney function in patients with T2DM.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection is very common and affects approximately half of the world population. It causes gastric diseases, but some authors have reported an association of H. pylori infection with other systemic manifestations beginning in 1994. The list of potential effects of H. pylori outside the stomach includes a number of extragastric manifestations and we focused on neurological, dermatological, hematologic, ocular, cardiovascular, metabolic, allergic, and hepatobiliary diseases. This review discusses these important reported manifestations that are not related to the gastrointestinal tract.

Abstract
Objectives To assess the association between Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection and insulin resistance among pregnant Sudanese women attending Saad Abuelela hospital (Khartoum). A cross-sectional study was conducted from 1st July 2017 to 31st January 2018. One hundred and sixty-six women were enrolled and underwent testing for H. pylori IgG antibodies using specific ELISA kits. The Quantitative insulin sensitivity check index (QUICKI) was computed from the fasting insulin and glucose levels. Results Median age, gravidity and gestational age were 27 years, 2 and 26 weeks, respectively. Twenty (12%) women were found to have gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). H. pylori IgG seroprevalence was 66.0% among the study population. Univariate analysis showed that H. pylori-seropositivity was significantly higher among women who have GDM while Log (Homeostatic Model Assessment-β) HOMA-B% was lower (P value = 0.038, and 0.028) respectively. There was no difference between the GDM group and the other group in terms of demographics, body mass index, haemoglobin and QUICKI index results. In multivariate analysis, a higher prevalence of H. pylori was associated with GDM (OR = 2.8, 95% CI 1.1–7.5, P = 0.036). The current study concludes that an increased prevalence of H. pylori is a risk factor for the development of GDM.

Abstract
Type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is the prevalent type of diabetes, including 90% of the cases world-wide. Helicobacter pylori plays a pathogenic role in the development of T2DM. The host genetic factors have a significant impact on the clinical outcome and anatomical distribution of H. pylori infection and polymorphisms in several genes such as tumor necrotic factor (TNF)-α and mannose-binding lectin (MBL) and are considered to increase the risk for the development of T2DM. In this study, we investigate the prevalence rate of H. pylori infection and its relationship to MBL rs1800450 and TNF-α rs1800620 polymorphism in T2DM. In this case-control study, 174 patients with type II diabetes and 185 healthy controls were studied. Also, demographics, physical, and biochemical parameters were performed in all patients. The DNA extracted from blood specimens was amplified by H. pylori cagA-specific primers. The MBL rs1800450 and TNF-α rs1800620 genotyping were detected by amplification refractory mutation system-polymerase chain reaction (ARMS-PCR). The results show that H. pylori cagA positivity was detected in 42.82% of the diabetic patients and in 22.16% of the control group, and H. pylori infection was closely correlated with MBL rs1800450 AA genotype and TNF-α rs1800620 GG genotype when compared with healthy controls. Furthermore, these two genotypes were strongly associated with H. pylori cagA(+) samples when compared with cagA(-) samples. In addition, the presence of H. pylori cagA(+) infection was significantly associated with the elevated serum levels of total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol. In general, it can be concluded that molecular analysis of MBL rs1800450 AA genotype and TNF-α rs1800620 AA genotype is important in the early detection and treatment of T2DM with H. pylori cagA(+) infection.

Abstract
Background Some studies suggest a significant relationship between Helicobacter pylori infection and atherogenesis; but the mechanism of the relationship is almost unknown. The current study aimed at evaluating the relationship between H. pylori infection and serum lipid profile. Patients and Methods The current study was conducted on 2573 patients, from 2008 to 2015. The serum anti-Helicobacter pylori antibody titer and serum lipid profile were assessed in the study population; data were statistically analyzed by SPSS version 16. P values < 0.05 were considered significant. Results In the current study, 66.5% of the cases were serologically positive for H. pylori. Among male cases, the level of low density lipoprotein (LDL) was higher in patients with H. pylori infection, compared with that of the ones without the infection (P = 0.03); although level of triglyceride (TG) was higher and the level of high density lipoprotein (HDL) was lower in the cases with H. pylori infection; there was no statistically significant difference between the cases with and without H. pylori infection regarding the level of HDL and TG. Among female cases, the level of TG was significantly lower in patients with H. pylori infection, compared with that of the ones without the infection (P = 0.001); but there was no significant difference between the cases with and without H. pylori infection regarding the level of LDL and HDL. The mean fasting blood sugar (FBS) in the cases with H. pylori infection was significantly higher than that of the ones without the infection (P = 0.04). Conclusion According to the results of the current study, the levels of LDL and FBS were high among the male cases with H. pylori infection. However, in females with H. pylori infection the level of TG was low; hence, it seems that the atherogenicity of H. pylori affected the level of blood sugar more.

Abstract
The microbial-mammalian metabolic axis has become recognized as an important component governing the overall homeostatic balance of the mammalian host. Disruption of the state of homeostasis among the gut microbiota has been shown to be causally linked to the development of host metabolic diseases including obesity, cardiovascular, diabetes, and fatty liver disease. This disruption is often referred to as gut dysbiosis. Gut dysbiosis leads to altered metabolic products derived from the microbiota and these in turn, typically shift the homeostatic metabolic balance of the host towards a low-grade chronic inflammation, a hallmark of metabolic syndrome. The primary objective of this review is to examine and discuss some very current research that has been done to study the effect of bacterial metabolites on host metabolism, sometimes referred to as microbiota-host co-metabolism. The metabolic conditions reviewed here include obesity, a known risk factor for all of the other metabolic conditions, as well as, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. Only by further understanding the cause and result of gut dysbiosis will an adequate solution be found for metabolic disease, a viewpoint shared by many.

Abstract
Background and Aim:Helicobacter pylori infection has been reported to promote the development of a variety of extra-digestive manifestations, including type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular and liver diseases. Recently, the association between H. pylori infection and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) was also proposed. However, evidence from different studies was controversial. We therefore performed this study to investigate the relationship between them in a large population of apparently healthy subjects in China. Methods: A total of 21,456 subjects underwent a healthy checkup program were included. H. pylori infection was detected by 14C urea breath test (14C-UBT) and NAFLD was diagnosed by ultrasonography. Results: Subjects infected with H. pylori had a more unfavorable metabolic profile, including higher levels of body mass index (BMI), blood pressure, triglycerides (TG) and lower levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), as compared with those without H. pylori infection (all P < 0.05). Moreover, the prevalence rate of NAFLD was significantly increased in subjects with H. pylori infection when compared with those without H. pylori in women (23.6% vs. 21.5%, P < 0.05), but not in men (46.5% vs. 45.5%, P > 0.05). After adjusting for confounding factors including age, sex, BMI, blood pressure and lipid profiles, multivariate logistic analysis revealed that H. pylori infection was not independently associated with the risk of NAFLD in the total population (OR = 0.9, 95% CI = 0.9–1.0, P = 0.097). Also, subgroup analysis (stratified by age, sex, BMI, and diabetes status) showed no independent association between H. pylori infection and NAFLD. Conclusion: Our data suggests that H. pylori infection is not independently associated with the risk of NAFLD in apparently healthy subjects.

Abstract
AIM The aim of this study is to survey the effect of Helicobacter Pylori on metabolic syndrome parameters in diabetic patients. BACKGROUND Helicobacter pylori (HP) infection is the most common infection in developing countries. Some studies showed the association between HP infection and insulin resistance. Insulin resistance is a major mechanism in the development of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and it is said that MetS is more prevalent among HP infected subjects. Also, some studies have shown that MetS is common among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. In this study, we aimed to investigate the prevalence of MetS in diabetic patients and its association with HP. METHODS This cross-sectional study was carried out from May to December 2014 on 211 diabetic patients. For each patient, the following data were collected: age, gender, diabetes duration, weight, body mass index (BMI), waist circumference, blood pressure (BP), HDL, cholesterol, triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol, and HbA1c. The lipid profile was performed on fasting samples. Anti- HP IgG antibody was measured and serum titer >30AU/mL was considered positive. MetS was diagnosed by The National Cholesterol Education Program's Adult Treatment Panel III report (NCEP-ATPIII) and IDF criteria. RESULTS Totally 139 patients (65.9%) were HP+ and 72 patients (34.1%) were HP-. Age, gender and diabetes duration were not significantly different in both groups. BMI was significantly lower in HP+ women (29.05±5.26 vs. 31.45±4.8, p=0.02). Although the waist circumference of men was not different between the two groups but it was significantly lower in HP+ women (102.04±12.37 vs. 97.3±10, p=0.03). Although BP and TG levels were not statistically different in HP+ and HP- patients, but HP+ patients had lower HDL level (p=0.037) which was due to lower HDL in men (58.2±26.6 vs. 72.48±28.1, p=0.012). The prevalence of MetS according to the IDF criteria among HP+ and HP- patients was 76.6% vs. 69.8% (p=0.27). Also, the prevalence of MetS according to NCEP-ATP III criteria among HP+ and HP- patients was 90.4% vs. 87.2% (p=0.5). Duration of diabetes did not affect the prevalence of metabolic syndrome among HP+ and HP- patients. CONCLUSION It seems that HP infection increases the prevalence of metabolic syndrome through an increase in insulin resistance. According to NCEP-ATPIII criteria, the increase in the prevalence of metabolic syndrome in HP+ patients is almost significant, however more complete studies is recommended to investigate this relationship.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Literature data suggest an association between Helicobacter pylori infection and glucose homeostasis. However, a causative link between them has not been demonstrated yet. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of H. pylori eradication on glucose homeostasis in patients with type 2 diabetes. METHODS AND RESULTS A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was conducted to investigate the effect of H. pylori eradication on glucose homeostasis in 154 patients with type 2 diabetes and who tested positive for H. pylori infection (mean age (SD), 63.1 (8.1) years). Subjects were assigned to H. pylori eradication treatment or placebo. Metabolic and inflammatory parameters were measured in all subjects at baseline and 4 weeks after the treatment. H. pylori eradication led to an improvement in glucose homeostasis, measured by HOMA-IR (p < 0.001) and KITT (0 = 0.041), due to the decrease in fasting insulin levels (p = 0.004). The results also showed that lower levels of inflammatory parameters were present after eradication. CONCLUSION To our knowledge this is the first randomized, double blind, controlled study where the effect of H. pylori eradication on glucose homeostasis in subjects with type 2 diabetes has been investigated. Our findings demonstrate that H. pylori eradication improves glucose homeostasis in patients with type 2 diabetes through a decrease in pro-inflammatory factors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To systematically review and quantify the effect of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection on the risk of metabolic syndrome (MS) and metabolic parameters in individuals with H. pylori infection. METHODS A systematic search of MEDLINE and EMBASE was performed. Inclusion criteria were observational studies assessing the association between H. pylori infection and MS in adult participants. We calculated the pooled effect estimate of MS with 95% confidence interval (CI) between patients infected with H. pylori and those without by using a random-effects model. The secondary outcomes were the differences between groups in homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), fasting blood glucose (FBG), body mass index (BMI) and systolic blood pressure (SBP). RESULTS Altogether 18 trials with 27 544 participants met the inclusion criteria. Six trials were included in the analysis of MS. There was a statistically significant association between H. pylori and MS with a pooled odds ratio of 1.34 (95% CI 1.17-1.53, I(2) = 39%, Pheterogeneity < 0.01). Between the infected and non-infected groups there were significant differences in FBG, HDL-C, BMI, triglyceride, HOMA-IR and SBP (all P < 0.05). CONCLUSION H. pylori infection is positively associated with MS. Infection with H. pylori is also associated with higher triglyceride, FBG, BMI, HOMA-IR, SBP and lower HDL-C.

Abstract
The rate of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection increases significantly in patients with diabetes mellitus. H. pylori infection as an independent factor can promote insulin resistance. H. pylori eradication rate is much lower in diabetic patients than in normal controls. Blood glucose levels tend to fluctuate more widely, and is not easy to be controlled in diabetic patients with H. pylori infection. Eradication of H. pylori can help to improve diabetic progression. H. pylori infection is related to the occurrence of diabetic complications, such as diabetic nephropathy, atherosclerosis, and gastroparesis. The mechanism of H. pylori infection affecting diabetes mellitus may be related to systemic inflammatory response, vascular endothelial damage and changes of hormone levels such as leptin and ghrelin.

Abstract
AIM: To investigate the association between Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection and level of insulin resistance (IR).
METHODS: The articles on the association of H. pylori with IR level were retrieved by searching databases from the inception of each database to July 2015. Data extraction and quality assessment were completed by two authors. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3 software.
RESULTS: Seven papers with nine studies were included for meta-analysis. A total of 3097 patients, including 1718 H. pylori (+) subjects, were involved. The results of Meta-analysis showed that there was a significant difference in insulin resistance levels between patients with H. pylori infection and those without in the overall population (WMD = 0.38, 95%CI: 0.13-0.64, P < 0.05). Subgroup analysis indicated that the significant difference in insulin resistance levels between patients with H. pylori infection and those without existed in patients aged < 45 years (WMD = 0.63, 95%CI: 0.40-0.86, P < 0.05), those who underwent endoscopic biopsy (WMD = 0.70, 95%CI: 0.46-0.94, P < 0.05), those who had a body mass index (BMI) < 25 kg/m2 (WMD = 0.72, 95%CI:0.49-0.96, P < 0.05), and Asian patients (WMD = 0.66, 95%CI: 0.44-0.87, P < 0.05), but not in patients aged ≥ 45 years, those who underwent serum H. pylori-IgG antibody testing, those who had a BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2, or American patients. The results of publication bias and sensitivity analysis confirmed the reliability and stability of this Meta-analysis.
CONCLUSION: H. pylori infection is associated with elevated insulin resistance.

Abstract
The extragastric manifestations of Helicobacter pylori infection still remain a very strong topic throughout the H. pylori world. Indeed, H. pylori may interfere with many biological processes, both inside and outside of the stomach, possibly influencing or determining the occurrence of many diseases outside of the stomach. While its role in idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura and sideropenic anemia has already been recognized, emerging evidence suggests that H. pylori may increase the risk of acute coronary syndrome, contribute to insulin resistance and be associated with neurodegenerative, respiratory, and other miscellaneous disorders previously associated with other conditions. Different pathogenic mechanisms have been hypothesized, including the induction of a low-grade inflammatory state and the occurrence of molecular mimicry mechanisms. This review summarizes the results of the most relevant studies published on this topic in the last year.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori infection and diabetes mellitus are two independent common diseases. It is showed that the worsening glycemic and metabolic control increases the rates of Helicobacter pylori infections and Helicobacter pylori is shown as one of the common problems in diabetic patients with complaints of gastrointestinal diseases. In this study, we aimed to investigate the prevalence and eradication rates of Helicobacter pylori in diabetic patients and the relationship of Helicobacter pylori with the risk factors and diabetic complications. In our study, in which we have included 133 patients, we have shown a significant relationship between Helicobacter pylori infections and metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, inflammations, and diabetic complications.
