Aim: To determine the prevalence of Helicobacter pylori infection and correlation between H. pylori infection and single nucleotide polymorphism (SNPs) identified in gastric cardia adenocarcinoma (GCA) patients. Methods: A case control study was performed. 22 risks of GCA-related SNPs were identified by genotyping assay and the relationship between susceptibility loci for GCA and H. pylori infection was further analyzed. Results: Helicobacter pylori infection was associated with GCA significantly (odds ratio: 1.40; 95% CI: 1.29–1.53 p < 0.01). Five GCA risk SNPs had their genotypes significantly different between H. pylori positive patients and H. pylori negative patients. Conclusion: The interaction between SNPs susceptibility loci and H. pylori infection is associated with an increased risk of GCA.
