The stimulating effect of AOC-tetragastrin, caerulein, Histalog and secretin on human gastric acid and pepsin secretion was studied in gastric ulcer patients. The pattern of gastric acid and pepsin secretion after the administration of caerulein was closely resembled to that of gastrin. Slight increase of pepsin secretion after gastrin or caerulein could be based on "wash-out" action caused by the increase of acid secretion after the stimulants. Stimulating effect on gastric pepsin secretion of histalog and secretin would be independent of gastric acid secretion.

The nitrogen balance was studied in cancer of the rectum cases before operation and in various periods after it. For a comparative analysis the nitrogen balance studies were carried out in duodenal and gastric ulcer cases and in 25 practically healthy individuals, who constituted a control group. A persistent negative nitrogen balance was found in cancer of the rectum. The authors developed an effective pathogenic therapy with due regard for revealed changes.

Twenty-nine randomized clinical trials (RCTs) from the decade 1964-74 evaluating treatments of gastric ulcer have been analyzed. None of them ful-filled all criteria for an ideal RCT. The most frequent shortcomings were: short treatment or follow-up periods, incomplete description of the patients included, small patient samples, suboptimal experimental design, lack of double-blind testing, high number of drop-outs, less precise or less relevant types of evaluation of the treatment effect, uncontrolled ancillary treatment, or lack of statistical evaluation of the results. The most frequently tested drug was carbenoxolone, which has been shown to be clearly effective. Judged by the effect on the recommendations in standard medical textbooks the impact of the best RCTs have been small. This situation emphasizes the need for more well-planned and performed RCTs on treatments of gastric ulcer.

The effect of carbenoxolone on the healing of gastric ulcer and erosions was compared with that of placebo. The series consisted of 20 patients with chronic gastric ulcers and 20 patients with superficial erosions of the stomach. The diagnosis as well as the follow-up of the lesions were based on gastroscopic examinations. The ulcers were measured gastroscopically. A double-blind method was used. Besides carbenoxolone 50 mg or placebo three times daily, all the patients received antacids in fixed dosage for six weeks. Subjective symptoms and cardiovascular side-effects were recorded. Maximal acid output and serum gastrin levels were measured before and after the treatment. No difference was seen between carbenoxolone and placebo groups with regard to the healing rate of the ulcers of disappearance of the erosions. The subjective symptoms subsided significantly faster in the treatment groups than in the control groups. No cardiovascular side-effects were evident during the treatment with carbenoxolone. One patient needed potassium supplements. Carbenoxolone had no effect on the pentagastrin-stimulated gastric acid secretion nor on the serum gastrin values.

Following 3x200 mg Tagament (cymetidine SK & F) tablets at meals and 2 in the evening (5 per day) for an average of 31 days, complete endoscopic cure was obtained after 29 days (duodenal patients) and 35 days (gastric patients) in 26/27 subjects with slow healing histories (17 with duodenal and 10 with gastric ulcer). Rapid regression of pain and dyspepsia was observed form the outset and there was a marked reduction in the consumption of antacid preparation. Its marked efficacy and good tolerance make Tagamet a drug of choice in the treatment of peptic, duodenal and gastric ulcers.

Subtotal parathyroidectomy was performed on 34 patients with severe renal insufficiency. The indications were grave clinical symptoms (pruritus, bone pains and mental disturbances), gastric ulcer and radiological abnormalities (metastatic calcifications, osteoporosis, fractures and subperiostal resorption). The serum calcium level was elevated in eight cases. The serum parathormone value was determined in 13 cases, it was elevated in all cases. Less than 500 mg tissue was removed in 12, between 500 and 6000 mg in 19 and over 6000 mg in 3 cases. Nodular hyperplasia was demonstrated in 11 and diffuse hyperplasia in 23 patients. The serum calcium and parathormone levels fell markedly after the operation, and pruritus, bone pains and mental disturbances were markedly alleviated. Complete recovery was achieved only by a successful renal transplantation, but the operation had often a favourable effect on the grave symptoms.

Ninety-six patients with gastric ulcer were randomly allocated to treatment either with deglycyrrhizinised liquorice or placebo. After four weeks no differences were found between the treatment groups in the proportions with complete healing, whether assessed by gastroscopy or radiology, or in the percentage reduction in ulcer area, or in clinical improvement.

A plastic tissue adhesive, trifluoroisopropyl 2-cyanoacrylate (Flucrylate (TM), MBR4197), was tested for hemostatic efficacy in acute laparotomy experiments using a canine model of acute bleeding gastric ulcer. An improved delivery system suitable for endoscopic use was developed. Hemostatic efficacy of the adhesive was tested in both briskly bleeding ulcers and in oozing ulcers after partial treatment with a heater probe. In pilot studies at laparotomy, primary and adjunctive cyanoacrylate therapy of 81 bleeding ulcers were evaluated in seven unheparinized foxhounds. Hemostasis was produced in 11% of ulcers treated with cyanoacrylate alone and in 31% of ulcers treated with cyanoacylate as an adjunctive after partial heater-probe treatment; no sham-treated control ulcers stopped bleeding under the conditions of the experiment. To evaluate Flucrylate (TM) using out standard heparinized ulcer model, a randomized study was performed in six heparinized foxhounds at laparotomy. Ulcers were randomized to treatment with cyanoacrylate alone, adjuctive cyanoacrylate, heater probe alone or untreated control. Sham-treated control ulcers or ulcers treated with cyanoacrylate alone did not stop bleeding; 42% of ulcers treated with cyanoacrylate as an adjunctive stopped bleeding; all ulcers treated with a heater probe stopped bleeding. In this experimental model of acute bleeding gastric ulcer, trifluoroisopropyl 2-cyanoacrylate (Flucrylate(TM),MBR4197) did not stop severe bleeding and was unpredictable as an adjunctive treatment.

Until now pathogenesis and the choice of surgical procedure in the management of gastric ulcer has suffered due to lack of resolution. The pathogenetic value of duodenogastric reflux for example has been underestimated and has not been considered in the operative technique. In order to close this gap the primary of secondary isoperistaltic orthograde interpositon of a jejunal loop between gastric remnant and duodenum is recommended.

In 95 consecutive cases of cavaderic renal transplantation followed up for 1 to 83 months (mean 23.1 months) 17 complications developed in the upper gastrointestinal tract of 15 patients; these included duodenal ulcer in 12 and gastric ulcer, esophagitis, hemorrhagic gastritis, small-bowel obstruction and small-bowel perforation in 1 each. The occurrence of a complication was not related to the patient's age, sex, blood group or use of cigarettes or alcohol, the duration of hemodialysis before transplantation, the tissue match or the number of infusions of immunosuppressive medication. One patient died of the complication. The peptic ulcers that developed after transplantation were successfully managed conservatively in 69% of cases. Since surgical treatment in patients whose immune response has been suppressed is associated with an increased frequency of complications such as disruption of suture lines, it is preferable to reserve it for those in whom complications develop that are unresponsive to conservative measures.
