Abstract
Objective
To study the relationship between Helicobacter pylori (HP) infection and homocysteine (Hcy) levels and cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD).
Methods
From March 2017 to December 2018, 67 patients (outpatient and inpatient) who complained of dizziness in the First Affiliated Hospital of Jinzhou Medical University were divided into CSVD group(30 cases) and control group(37 cases). Single factor analysis, Spearman correlation analysis and binary logistic regression analysis were used to analyze the influencing factors of CSVD.Receiver operating characteristic curve was used to predict the diagnostic value of influencing factors for CSVD.The effects of HP and Hcy on CSVD were analyzed using mediation effect.
Results
(1)Hcy (r=0.345, P=0.004), HP positive (r=0.274, P=0.026), age (r=0.420, P=0.000), male (r=0.260, P=0.034), total cholesterol (r=0.273, P=0.025), triglycerides (r=0.272, P=0.026), hypertension (r=0.454, P=0.000), diabetes (r=0.284, P=0.020), smoking (r=0.499, P=0.000), coronary heart disease (r=0.284, P=0.020) were positively correlated with CSVD.(2)Logistic regression analysis showed that Hcy (β=0.315, OR=1.370, 95%CI=1.025-1.831), total cholesterol (β=0.979, OR=2.661, 95%CI=1.086-6.523) were independent risk factors for CSVD.(3)Hcy (sensitivity: 76.7%, specificity: 86.5%)and total cholesterol levels(sensitivity: 90.0%, specificity: 83.8%) had specific and sensitive diagnostic value for the diagnosis of CSVD, and total cholesterol (area under ROC curve=0.928) had more diagnostic value than Hcy (area under ROC curve=0.877). (4) The mediating effect of HP on CSVD was not completely affected by the mediating effect of Hcy, and HP had partially direct effect on CSVD.
Conclusions
(1) Hcy and total cholesterol are independent risk factors of CSVD, which have specific and sensitive diagnostic value for CSVD, especially for total cholesterol.(2)The mediating effect of HP on CSVD is not completely affected by the mediating variable Hcy, and HP has a partially direct effect on CSVD.

期刊介绍:
"Chinese Journal of Behavioral Medicine and Brain Science" (CN 37-1468/R, ISSN 1674-6554) is a national academic journal under the supervision of the National Health Commission, sponsored by the Chinese Medical Association and Jining Medical College. The journal was founded in June 1992 and was formerly known as "Chinese Journal of Behavioral Medicine" (1992-1993) and "Chinese Behavioral Medical Science" (1994-2008). In 2009, it was renamed "Chinese Journal of Behavioral Medicine and Brain Science" with the approval of the State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television.
The purpose of "Chinese Journal of Behavioral Medicine and Brain Science" is to implement the health and health policies of the Party and the State, implement the principle of combining theory with practice and popularization and improvement, and reflect the major progress in the theory and practical application of behavioral medicine and brain science in my country. It publishes academic papers and scientific research results in the field of behavioral medicine and brain science in my country, and has columns such as monographs/reviews, basic research, clinical research, health prevention, methods and techniques, psychological behavior and evaluation, and systematic evaluation.
