Abstract:
Gastric microbiota may be involved in the pathogenicity of Helicobacter pylori(Hp). In the present study, 30 male patients with coronary atherosclerosis disease (CAD) infected with Hp and 30 healthy male volunteers with Hp infection as the control group were detectedby macrogenomic sequencing for gastric microbiota. According to the diversity of gastric microbiota, the CAD group was further divided into two subgroups: CAD treatment (CAD-T) and CAD fellow-up (CAD-F). Shannon index of CAD-T was significantly lower than that of the control group and CAD-F (P<0.05), Simpson index was significantly higher than that of the control group and CAD-F (P<0.05), and there was no statistical difference between CAD-T and the control group and CAD-F patients in Chao1 and ACE index (P>0.05). There is a difference in the dominant flora between the CAD group and the control group. After Hp eradication, Shannon index of gastric microbiota increased, Simpson index decreased, and there was statistical difference before and after Hp eradication in CAD-T group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in Chao1 and ACE index between before and after Hp eradication (P>0.05). There is a significant difference in the dominant flora before and after eradication in CAD-T group. There were significant differences in clinical manifestations, endoscopic manifestations and pathological results among the three groups (P<0.05). The diversity of gastric microbiota is closely related to the pathogenicity of Hp,, regardless of dominant flora.
