Abstract

Objective: To investigate the relation between seropositivity to chronic infections with Helicobacter pylori and Chlamydia pneumoniae and both coronary heart disease and cardiovascular risk factors. Objective:To investigate the relation between seropositivity to chronic infections with Helicobacter pylori and Chlamydia pneumoniae and both coronary heart disease and cardiovascular risk factors. Setting: General practices in Merton, Sutton, and Wandsworth, south London. Subjects: 388 white south London men aged 50-69. Main outcome measures: Evidence of coronary risk factors and infection with H pylori or C pneumoniae. Results: 47 men (12.1%) had electrocardiographic evidence of ischaemia or infarction. 36 (76.6%) and 18 (38.3%) were seropositive for H pylori and C pneumoniae, respectively, compared with 155 (45.5%) and 62 (18.2%) men with normal electrocardiograms. Odds ratios for abnormal electrocardiograms were 3.82 (95% confidence interval 1.60 to 9.10) and 3.06 (12.33 to 7.01) in men seropositive for H pylori and C pneumoniae, respectively, after adjustment for a range of socioeconomic indicators and risk factors for coronary heart disease. Cardiovascular risk factors that were independently associated with seropositivity to H pylori included fibrinogen concentration and total leucocyte count. Seropositivity to C pneumoniae was independently associated with raised fibrinogen and malondialdehyde concentrations. Conclusions: Both H pylori and C pneumoniae infections are associated with coronary heart disease. These relations are not explained by a wide range of confounding factors. Possible mechanisms include an increase in risk factor levels due to a low grade chronic inflammatory response.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
