Zusammenfassung: | Background
Helicobacter pylori (H pylori) immunoglobulin G (IgG) seropositivity is prevalent but its relation with leukocyte telomere length (LTL), a cellular aging biomarker, is unclear.
Methods
Among 3,472 participants from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) cycle 1999‐2000, LTL was measured with the quantitative polymerase chain reaction. H pylori IgG was measured by enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assays and defined as seropositivity with an immune status ratio score > 0.9. We used linear regression models to examine the relation of H pylori IgG seropositivity with continuous LTL and logistic regression for the relation with short LTL ( |
