Helicobacter pylori aeropositivity and the incidence of hyperemesis gravidarum.

Abstract

Although more patients with HG were seropositive for H. pylori infection than controls, we were not able to demonstrate correlation between seropositivity for H. pylori and the time of onset or duration of HG symptoms. Although H. pylori infection may be an important factor in exacerbating HG, it may not represent the sole cause of the disease.
