H. pylori and insulin resistance in metabolic syndrome
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This study looks at whether a common stomach infection (H. pylori) affects insulin resistance in people with metabolic syndrome. It uses simple tests like a breath test, stool sample, and blood draw to check if treating the infection could help improve metabolic health.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests whether treating H. pylori infection can help improve metabolic syndrome (a group of conditions like high blood sugar, abnormal cholesterol, and high blood pressure). It aims to understand how treatment changes your gut bacteria and overall health.
This study looks at whether a common stomach infection called H. pylori is connected to health problems like high blood sugar, high blood pressure, and belly fat (metabolic syndrome). If you have stomach discomfort, you may be able to join and help researchers understand this link.
This study follows people with an H. pylori stomach infection over the long term after treatment to see how it changes stomach findings. It may help doctors understand whether eradicating the infection improves stomach health and prevents worsening over time.
This study tests whether getting rid of H. pylori bacteria in your stomach helps improve symptoms like pain, bloating, or nausea. You would take antibiotics and a stomach acid reducer, then be checked for symptom changes.
This study follows adults with past or current H. pylori infection to better understand stomach lining changes such as atrophic gastritis and intestinal metaplasia, and to monitor for possible progression. It may help by improving how doctors track risk over time and use stored tissue samples to learn more.
This trial is for adults aged 18 to 80 who have a Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection in their stomach and have never been treated for it. The study will look at how treating the infection affects symptoms like indigestion or stomach pain.
