New evidencebasic sciencebiomarkerepidemiology
Clinical takeawayIn AIG patients with anemia, confirm IFA positivity and H. pylori infection status, as these findings align with SOC for anemia evaluation in AIG.
What it foundAIG patients with IFA positivity had a 2.4-fold higher risk of anemia (OR=2.379, P=0.047), and IDA was associated with H. pylori infection (66.7% vs. 28.0%, P=0.009).
ContextSupports existing evidence linking IFA positivity and H. pylori infection to anemia in AIG.
