A study in 1122 survivors of myocardial infarction (mean age: 44 years) and in 1122 matched controls, yielding an adjusted odds ratio of 1.87 (95% Cl 1.52-2.32; P < 0.00001) for H. pylori seropositivity. The report also compared H. pylori seropositivity in 510 survivors of myocardial infarction (mean age: 59 years) and age- and sex-matched siblings without a history of coronary heart disease, yielding an adjusted odds ratio of 1.37 (95% Cl 0.87-2.15).
