Table 8 Frequency of H pylori infection

B12 deficient group (n = 30) (%)		Control group (n = 16) (%)
H pylori positive	12 (40)	H pylori positive	5 (31.2)
H pylori negative	18 (60)	H pylori negative	11 (68.8)

Fisher’s exact test determined that H pylori infection rates were similar in B12 deficient and control patients (P = 1.000) and that the presence of intrinsic factor antibodies was low and unrelated to H.pylori infection in the B12 deficient group (1/7 in H pylori+ vs. 0/10 in H pylori– patients, P = 0.338; data not presented).
