Aim. To study the clinical features, disability degree and expert examination results in patients with peptic ulcer disease. Methods. Acts of expertise of patients with peptic ulcer disease (gastric ulcer - 44 patients, duodenal ulcer - 47 patients) performed in medical and social expertise bureau on internal diseases of Saint-Petersburg, Russia from 2009 to 2011 were examined. Results. The most frequent peptic ulcer disease risk factors found in both of the groups were: predisposing diet and dietary habits (65.9% of patients with gastric ulcer, 78.7% of patients with duodenal ulcer), smoking (53.2 and 63.6% respectively), stress (70.5 и 87.2% respectively). In 10 (22.7%) patients with gastric ulcer and in 38 (80.9%) patients with duodenal ulcer peptic ulcer disease was associated with presence of Helicobacter pylori. There was a combination of predisposing factors in a majority of patients. In most of the cases a moderate activity and a long term of the disease was registered. Complications were diagnosed in 30 (68.2%) patients with gastric ulcer and in 27 (57.4%) patients with duodenal ulcer, most frequently: gastrointestinal bleeding - 19 (43.2%) and 12 (25.5%) patients respectively, gastric outlet obstruction - 10 (22.7%) and 9 (19.2%) patients respectively. According to the medical and social expertise algorithm 19 (43.2%) patients with gastric ulcer and 17 (36.2%) patients with duodenal ulcer were primarily rated as disability degree III, 3 (6.8%) and 2 (4.3%) patients respectively - as disability degree II. Contraindicated jobs and labor conditions, low labor, functional and social status were the reasons of setting up the status of disabled. Conclusion. The preliminary data show that peptic ulcer disease is not only a medical, but a major social problem, requiring novel treatment and prevention methods, as well as personal rehabilitation programs development and improvement.

BACKGROUND: Since late 1960s, the prevalence of peptic ulcer disease and its complications has been steadily decreasing. OBJECTIVE: To ascertain the changing trends in the prevalence and complications of peptic ulcer in Kashmir. METHODS: A cohort of 10474 people aged 15-60 years in district Baramulla of Kashmir was interviewed about symptoms, complications, and surgery related to peptic ulcer. People were enquired about smoking, use of NSAIDs, H2 Receptor antagonists, proton pump inhibitors and endoscopies. All symptomatic and randomly selected group of asymptomatic people underwent esophago-gastro-cluodenoscopy. RESULTS: In symptomatic group, 286 (41.45%) people hod peptic ulcer and in asymptomatic group 24 (5.35%) had peptic ulcer. There were 71 already diagnosed cases of peptic ulcer; totaling 381. Thirty three people had surgery for peptic ulcer. The point prevalence of peptic ulcer was 3.54% and lifetime prevalence 8.96%. The highest prevalence was in 4th decade. Bleeding was seen in 23.63%, gastric outlet obstruction 4.20%, ulcer perforation 0.52%. 9.39% of peptic ulcer patients had undergone surgery. When compared to previous study in 1985 in Kashmir, there was decrease in point prevalence of 25%, in life-time prevalence of 20.14%, Gastric outlet obstruction by 51.7%, ulcer perforation by 87%, surgery rate by 60% and bleeding by a marginal 2%. CONCLUSION: Prevalence of peptic ulcerand its complications (except bleeding) are showing downward trend in Kashmir over the last 20 years. JMS 2012;15(2):136-40
