Abstract

Background: Hypercholesterolemia prevalence was 39% in adults and a risk factor for cardiovascular, cerebrovascular, atherosclerotic disease, leading to vertigo. Diet and specific food potentiate in dyslipidemia risk reduction. Several studies have been proposed that probiotics have a hypocholesterolemic effect. Objectives: This study aims to determine the effect of probiotics on lipid profiles in hypercholesterolemia adult patients. Methods: Electronic literature searching was conducted from Pubmed, Scopus, and Cochrane Library. MeSH Terms combined with Title/Abstract are used in advanced search based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Results: Critical appraisal was conducted for a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. Probiotic supplementation significantly decreases total cholesterol and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels but not statistically significant in high-density lipoprotein and triglycerides levels. Conclusion: Single strain Lactobacillus plantarum probiotics for at least six weeks can improve total cholesterol levels in hypercholesterolemia adult patients.

Abstract

Background: Helicobacter pylori colonizes the gastric mucosa in 50% of the human population. H. pylori infection causes several upper gastrointestinal tract diseases such as chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer, duodenal ulcer, and gastric cancer. H. pylori is also associated with a high risk of developing gastric adenocarcinoma. The World Health Organization classifies H. pylori infection as a class 1 carcinogen. Giving probiotics may improve the immune system and suppress the effects of pathogens. However, mixed results were obtained from the use of various kinds of bacteria and fungi as probiotics. Objective: To determine the effectiveness of probiotic supplementation against the eradication of Helicobacter pylori infection in gastric ulcers. Conclusion: The effectiveness uses of probiotics to eradicate H. pylori has not been proven. It will take clinical trials with a sufficient number of subjects and certain probiotic strains to be able to determine the type of strain, dosage, duration of use, and side effects that can be caused.
