Helicobacter pylori is a bacterium that has infected more than half of the Japanese population and is associated with chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer, and gastric cancer. We conducted a clinical study on the association between Helicobacter pylori infection and various feeding and metabolic regulating factors. The result raises the possibility that Helicobacter pylori infection affects the host’s nutritional status through changes in the plasma levels of ghrelin, which regulates feeding behavior, and adiponectin, which regulates metabolic status.
