Abstract
This study aimed to assess the link between Helicobacter pylori patients and thyroid hormone abnormalities. The current study included serum samples collected from 50 patients (male and female aged 15 to 55 years) suffering from H. pylori, where the anti-H was detected. Pylori IgG did infection confirmation. Additionally, 50 serum samples were collected from healthy people as a control. Hormones of thyroid glands, including T3, T4, and TSH, were measured in both patients and the control group using Cobas e411. A significant correlation at a p-value of 0.01 was seen between the infected H. pylori group and thyroid hormone abnormalities. In conclusion, long-lasting infection with H. pylori may cause abnormality in thyroid hormone levels, either hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism.
