Given that HP induces release of pro-inflammatory cytokine, it may contribute to GDF-15 expression. Our results demonstrated that HP can be associated with endothelial dysfunction through cytokine release by the finding of elevated GDF-15 level in these patients.

Since the CIMT of all patients in our study was within the normal limits, the results we obtained should be evaluated carefully. Although these normal CIMT values are due to the fact that all of our patients were young and did not have any comorbiditiy, we think that higher CIMT values are valuable in this young patient population.</p><p id="par0120" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Atherogenic dyslipidemia is defined as elevated TG and normal and/or elevated LDL-C levels with decreased HDL-C levels.

Thus, presence of correlation between GDF-15 level and CIMT suggest that cytokine-related endothelial injury may have role in atherosclerotic process. In addition, GDF-15 level can be a potential early marker for subclinical atherosclerosis since it was elevated while remaining atherosclerotic indices were normal. However, our results should be interpreted with caution, since CIMT was normal in all patients and atherosclerotic indices did not differ significantly in HP-positive patients. Our study makes important contribution in topic of relationship between atherosclerosis and vitamin B12 and D where there are controversial publications in the literature. It was seen that levels of these vitamins were not associated to any atherosclerotic parameter in our study population including young adults without comorbidity. Further prospective-controlled studies are needed to assess atherosclerosis development in HP-positive patients.</p></span><span id="sec0060" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span
