There is no relation between age and Helicobacter pylori infection (p=0.270). Higher socio-economic class was related to lower risk Helicobacter pylori infection (OR 0.2; 95% CI 0.02-1.71). Higher crowding index was related to higher risk Helicobacter pylori infection (OR 1.2; 95% CI 0.37-4.49). Lower clean water index was related to higher risk Helicobacter pylori infection (OR 1.5; 95% CI 0.57-4.04). Lower sanitation status was related to higher risk Helicobacter pylori infection (OR 2.5; 95% CI 1.01-6.19).
