Abstract

Background: Vitamin B12 is essential for DNA synthesis, formation of myelin sheaths,neurotransmitter synthesis, and erythropoiesis. Insufficient intake or disrupted absorption ofvitamin B12 results in deficiency. Clinical manifestations of vitamin B12 deficiency includehematologic and neuropsychiatric disorders. Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori) is the mostcommon chronic bacterial infection in humans. Some reports suggest that extraintestinaldiseases are related to H.pylori infections. Some studies have shown strong associationsbetween vitamin B12 and H.pylori infections. This study aims to investigate H.pyloriinfections in patients with neurological symptoms of vitamin B12 deficiency.Methods: The data of patients with Vitamin B12 deficiency who were admitted to neurologyand gastroenterology outpatient clinics were scanned. The main inclusion criterion for thepatients was having no other clinical conditions that account for the neurological symptoms.To evaluate the relationship with neurological symptoms, the patients were divided into twogroups: Group I: H.pylori (+); and Group II: H.pylori (-).Results: Of the 40 patients included the study, H.plyori infection was seen in 27 (68%)patients. The most frequent neurological diseases were major depression + mild cognitiveimpairment (14.8%), and tension-type headache + major depression (25.9%) in patients withH.pylori infection. None of the patients showed hematological changes typical ofmegaloblastic anemia signs in CBC.Conclusions: We conclude that neuropsychiatric disorders due to Vitamin B12 deficiencymay occur in the absence of anemia or an elevated MCV and it is frequently seen togetherwith H.pylori infection.

Özet

Amaç: Vitamin B12 DNA sentezi, miyelin kılıf oluşumu, nörotransmitter sentezi veeritropoez için gereklidir. Diyetle yetersiz alım veya emilim bozukluğu Vitamin B12 eksikliğiile sonuçlanır. Vitamin B12 eksikliği klinik olarak hematolojik ve nöropsikiyatrikbozukluklarla kendini gösterir. Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori) insanlarda en sık görülen kronikbakteryal infeksiyondur. Sindirim sistemi dışındaki hastalıklarla H.pylori arasında ilişkibildirilmiştir. Vitamin B12 ile H.pylori arasında güçlü ilişkiler bildiren çalışmalar mevcuttur.Bu çalışmada, vitamin B12 eksikliği olan nörolojik semptomlu hastalarda H.pyloriinfeksiyonunu araştırmayı amaçladık.Metod: Nöroloji ve gastroenteroloji polikliniğinden ortak takip edilen ve vitamin B12eksikliği olan hastaların kayıtlarını inceledik. Çalışmaya alınmak için esas kriterimizinörolojik bulguları açıklayacak başka bir etyolojik neden saptanmamış olması olarakbelirledik. Hastalar grup 1: H.pylori (+) ve grup 2: H.pylori (-) olmak üzere iki grubaayrılarak incelendi.Bulgular: Çalışmaya dahil edilen 40 hastadan 27' sinde (%68) H.pylori saptandı. H.pylorisaptanan hastalarda en sık görülen tablo depresyon+ hafif kognitif bozukluk (%14.8) vegerilim tipi başağrısı+ depresyon (%25.9) idi. Hastalarımızın hiçbirinin hemogramındamegaloblastik anemiyi telkin eden bulguya rastlanmadı.Sonuç: Vitamin B12 eksikliği ile ilişkilendirilen nöropsikiyatrik hastalıklara sıklıklamegaloblastik anemi eşlik etmediğini ve H.pylori birlikteliğinin sık olduğunu vurgulamakistedik.
