Title

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN HELICOBACTER PYLORI AND OPEN-ANGLE GLAUCOMA

Pages

Abstract

 Background: Glaucoma is among the most important ophthalmological problems leading to blindness if untreated. Several etiological factors have been proposed. One of the recent factors that has been mentioned is the relationship with HELICOBACTER PYLORI infection. The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of exposure to HELICOBACTER PYLORI infection in glaucoma patients. Patients and Methods: In this prospective case-control study, sixty consecutive patients with definitive diagnosis of OPEN-ANGLE GLAUCOMA attending a glaucoma clinic were compared with sixty-five age and sex-matched participants without glaucoma who served as the control population. The control group was subdivided into control I and II which included 30 and 35 participants, respectively. Both serum and stool were analyzed in the case group for the presence of HELICOBACTER PYLORI specific immunoglobulin antibodies using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay. Control group I was tested only for serum and control group II only for stool infection for HELICOBACTER PYLORI. Results: Seropositive rate for HELICOBACTER PYLORI was higher in patients with glaucoma (85%) than in controls (70%) but this observation was not statistically significant (p=0.09). Stool test was positive for HELICOBACTER PYLORI with a higher rate in patients with glaucoma (91.7%) than in controls (88.6%) but without any statistical significance (p=0.43). Conclusion: This study suggests that exposure to HELICOBACTER PYLORI infection is not associated with OPEN-ANGLE GLAUCOMA.
