Analyses were made by Student's t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation and multiple linear regressions.RESULTS PGII levels were higher in the ≥ 65-years-old age group(P < 0.05) and PGI/PGII were lower in the ≥ 75-years-old age group(P = 0.035) compared to the 35-44-years-old age group. Levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C) were higher(P = 0.009) in H. pylori-infected subjects that were male. LDL-C levels were higher in 55-74-years-old age group(P < 0.05) for H. pylori-infected subjects and 45-64-yearsold age group(P < 0.05) for non-infected subjects compared to 35-44-years-old age group. Hp-Ig G level positively correlated with PGⅠ, PGⅡ and G-17(P < 0.001, P < 0.001, P = 0.006), and negatively correlated with PGI/PGII(P < 0.001). Creatinine positively correlated with PGⅠ, PGⅡ and G-17(P < 0.001, P < 0.001, P < 0.001). Fasting blood glucose(FBG) positively correlated with PGⅠ/PGⅡ and G-17(P < 0.001, P = 0.037). Age positively correlated with PGII and G-17(P = 0.005, P = 0.026).CONCLUSION PGII levels increased while PGI/PGII declined with age in a healthy population. H. pylori infection had an effect on raising LDL-C levels to increase the risk of atherosclerosis in males, especially those of elderly age. Age, H. pylori infection, levels of renal function and FBG were associated with levels of pepsinogens and gastrin.展开更多
