Eradication of Helicobacter Pylori Improves Metabolic Syndrome Through Modulation of Gut Microbiota.

The Role of Gut Microbiota in the Mechanism of Helicobacter pylori Eradication-Induced Amelioration of Metabolic Syndrome-Related Parameters Study Sponsor: Nanjing First Hospital Principal Investigator: Dr. Wanli Liu Department: Gastroenterology Study Duration: February 2025 - August 2025 Key Information for Patients and Families 1. What is this study about? This study aims to understand how treating a common stomach infection caused by Helicobacter pylori (Hp) might improve metabolic health issues like high blood sugar, cholesterol problems, or obesity (collectively called metabolic syndrome). Specifically, it explores whether adding probiotics (good bacteria) or a natural compound called berberine (BBR) to standard Hp treatment can enhance these benefits by improving gut bacteria balance. 2. Who can participate? Patients: Adults aged 18-65 with both Helicobacter pylori infection (confirmed by a breath test) and newly diagnosed metabolic syndrome (based on waist size, blood sugar, cholesterol, or blood pressure). Healthy Volunteers: Adults aged 18-65 with no Hp infection and normal metabolic health (to compare results). Exclusions: Allergy to study medications (e.g., penicillin). Previous Hp treatment, recent antibiotic/steroid use, pregnancy, or serious medical conditions (e.g., liver/kidney disease). 3. What will participants do? Treatment Groups: Group A: Take two medications (vonoprazan + amoxicillin) for 14 days. Group B: Take the two medi…
