The reason for increased maximal acid secretory capacity in some patients with duodenal
ulcer is uncertain. We postulated that chronically increased cephalic-vagal stimulation may …

Most students of peptic ulcer are particularly intrigued by several aspects of this disease.
One is that gastric hydrochloric acid seems to be essential to the genesis and chronicity of …

To determine whether intestinal peptone perfusion stimulates gastric acid secretion in man,
the duodenum was infused with 10% peptone (w/v, 400 mOs/1) at 2 ml per min for 4 hr in 7 …

Roland, M., Berstad, A. & Liavåg, I. Acid and pepsin secretion in duodenal ulcer patients in
response to graded doses of pentagastrin or pentagastrin and carbacholine before and after …

Knowledge of the fluctuation of spontaneous gastric acid secretion is essential in order to
determine with confidence what level of acid secretion represents “stimulation” after the …

The purposes of these studies were as follows;(a) to compare gastric acid secretion
throughout an entire 24-h period in 8 patients with duodenal ulcer disease and in 7 normal …

A series comprising 63 patients with gastric ulcer and 86 with duodenal ulcer is presented.
Basal and maximal Histalog tests (1.5 mg/kg) were made. Biopsies were taken from …

The patterns of gastric emptying of an acid load, or of saline during acid perfusion through
the duodenum, have been investigated in healthy subjects and in patients with disease of …

RESULTS CONTROL STUDIES Perfusion studies using tapwater only were performed in
five male subjects, three of whom had a duodenal ulcer. No symptoms were experienced …

The autoregulation of gastric acid secretion has been one of the great problems challenging
gastric physiologists of this century. The important part played by the antrum-duodenum …
