marginal significancep=0.053
Post hoc analysis showed that HDL was different between the HP-non-eradicated and HP-eradicated groups with marginal significance (p=0.053 after Bonferroni correction), and BMI was different between the HP-uninfected and HP-eradicated groups (p=0.003) and between the HP-non-eradicated and HP-eradicated groups (p=0.041) ( Supplementary Table 1 ).
