Association of urinary metal exposure with H. pylori seropositivity and mortality in the U.S. Population: NHANES 1999–2000 analysis
Elevated urinary tungsten levels were significantly linked to H. pylori infection, while the relationship between tungsten and mortality differed by infection status: a dose-response association was observed in H. pylori-negative individuals, while a nonlinear association emerged in H. pylori-positive participants.
