T

he prevalence of

Helicobacter pylori

infection,(gastritis)in meth amphetamine abuser patients. Following the program

of researching metabolic changes in methamphetamine abuser patients, we have earned these data: 1- High prevalence

of vitamin B12 deficiency in methamphetamine abuser patients (%56) 2-High prevalence of reactive hypoglycemia in

methamphetamine abuser patients Following these findings we decided to find the factors that can cause these problems

Helicobacter pylori

infection (gastritis) not only can cause vitamin B12 deficiency (3), but also can cause reactive hypoglycemia.

Thus, we decided to measure serum

Helicobacter pylori

antibody (IgG) level in methamphetamine abuser patients.

Method. We visited all the patients that refer to in Karaj in Iran. We have been requested serum

Helicobacter pylori

antibody

(IgG) level, in the case that accepted our rules. According to lab findings we had 3 groups:

1- Serum

Helicobacter pylori

antibody level was positive for gastritis.

2- Serum

Helicobacter pylori

antibody levels show the patients were at risk of gastritis. (Borderline)

3- Serum

Helicobacter pylori

antibody level was negative for gastritis.

Laboratory and office-based serologic assay of antibodies to

Helicobacter pylori

have sensitivity and specificity of >%85 and

are considered the non invasive testes of choice for initial documentation of

Helicobacter pylori

infection 23 of the volunteers

were suitable for this study, 21 of volunteers were men and 2 were women. in 16 patients out of 23 patients that I inspected in

this study, the serum

Helicobacter pylori

antibody level (IgG) was positive and shown they suffer from gastritis. In 1 patients out

of 23 patients that I inspected in this study the serum

Helicobacter pylori

antibody (IgG) level shown they was at risk of gastritis

(borderline) and in 6 patients that shared in this study, serum

Helicobacter pylori

antibody (IgG) level did not show gastritis. In

the other hand, %69.56 of methamphetamine abuser patients had gastritis. %4.3 of them had the risk for gastritis and %26.08

did not show any reason for gastritis.
