The efficacy of switching from one type of H2-receptor antagonist (H2-blocker) to another, in the treatment of H2-blocker-resistant ulcers was investigated using H2-blockers with five-membered rings (five-membered-ring agents) – such as cimetidine, ranitidine and famotidine – and an H2-blocker with a six-membered ring, roxatidine. By switching from a five-membered-ring agent to roxatidine in the treatment of five-membered-ring resistant ulcers (study I), gastric ulcers were healed in nine of 19 patients (47%) and duodenal ulcers were healed in eight of nine patients (89%). By switching from roxatidine to one of the five-membered-ring agents in the treatment of roxatidine-resistant ulcers (study II), gastric ulcer was healed in six of 15 patients (40%), and duodenal ulcer was healed in 4 of 10 patients (40%). Particularry in the case of duodenal ulcers, the switch to treatment with roxatidine, which has a different chemical structure from the five-membered-ring agents, may be useful in the treatment of five-membered-ring-resistant ulcers.

If until now the views of most authors still diverge on the pathogenesis of gastric ulcers, then there is complete unanimity in assessing the role of the nervous system in the development and course of gastric ulcers and duodenal ulcers, stomach ulcers and duodenal ulcers have long ceased to be considered as local disease, it is a manifestation of a disease of the whole organism with the localization of the process in the stomach or duodenal ulcer, which finds its expression in the term peptic ulcer disease. This view, firmly established in medicine, on stomach and duodenal ulcers is impossible, of course, not consider when it comes to treating this suffering.

Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) has a role in the multifactorial etiology of peptic ulcer disease. A link between H. pylori infection and duodenal ulcer disease is now established. Other contributing factors and their interaction with the organism may initiate the ulcerative process. The fact that eradication of H. pylori infection leads to a long-term cure in the majority of duodenal ulcer patients and the fact that the prevalence of infection is higher in ulcer patients than in the normal population are cogent arguments in favor of it being the primary cause of the ulceration. This study was under taken at the Department of surgery, Narayana medical college, Nellore from January 2007 to July 2008. A total of 150 patients with duodenal ulcers, gastric ulcers, antral gastritis, gastric carcinoma and dyspepsia of any kind were studied. Maximum number of cases were in the age group of 31 years to 50 years among both sexes and number of cases gradually decreased after 50 years of age in males and females. Males were more in number and male to female ratio is (2.75:1) approximately 3:1.

SUMMARYPatients (454) referred for gastroscopy to the General Hospital of Athens were examined to determine (1) if non-secretors were over-represented among patients with ulcers and (2) is there was an association with ABO blood group or secretor status and carriage ofHelicobacter pylori.Compared with the local population, among patients with either gastric ulcer (51) or duodenal ulcer (96) there was a significant increase in the proportion of those who were blood group O (P< 0·025); however, there were no significant differences in the proportions of non-secretors.H. pyloriwas identified in 62 % of the 454 patients: 59·5 % of those without evidence of ulcers; 62·5 % of those with gastric ulcer; 88% of those with duodenal ulcer (P< 0·0005). These bacteria were cultured more often and in higher numbers from patients with duodenal ulcer (P< 0·025). There was no association between ABO blood group and prevalence ofH. pylori. The prevalence ofH. pyloriamong non-secretors with gastric ulcer (12·5%) was significantly lower than that for non-secretors with duodenal ulcer (100%) (P< 0·0005). This was not observed for secretors.

The aim of the study was to study the frequency and nature of episodes of heartburn and bloating in patients with duodenal and gastric ulcers in the Georgian population, considering the histomorphological and morphometric changes of the gastric mucosa and the parameters of gastric secretion. At the same time, we were interested in analyzing patients' anamnesis before being hospitalized for the last 2 months. The analysis of the material showed that incidence of heartburn episodes in the Georgian population is clearly higher in patients with peptic ulcer disease 12 - (79.9%) than in patients with gastric ulcer (9 - 31.9%). Episodes of heartburn in these patients are characterized not only by increasing of rate (more than 50 episodes), both day and night, but the intensity and duration (which is due to abnormal gastroesophageal reflux). This is a high risk for the occurrence of heartburn episodes. As for bloating, it was detected in patients with duodenal ulcer (11–26.2%), in gastric ulcer 11– (32.9%). The main pathogenetic aspects of heartburn episodes were found to be diffuse fundal glands hyperplasia and high acidity (duodenal ulcer and pyloric anterior ulcer). It was also found that a large percentage of patients were not treated properly, leading to impaired ability to work and changes in quality of life and disease progression.

Various animal models have often been utilized as the basis of studies of the pathophysiology of peptic ulcer disease, however the ultrastructural changes in the evolution of duodenal ulcers produced in experimental animals have not been well elucidated. Utilizing a surgical method developed for the study of gastric ulcers we have established an experimental duodenal ulcer production technique in the rat which is highly reproducible and readily standardized. In the following time sequence study of experimental duodenal ulcers we present the ultrastructural features of ulcer induction and evolution.Duodenal ulcers were produced in 150-200 gram male Sprague Dawley rats by application of 50% acetic acid for 30 seconds through a 3 mm polyethylene tube to the serosa 1.0-1.5 cm distal to the pyloric sphincter. Routine transmission and scanning electron microscopy were performed on duodenal specimens at specific time points subsequent to surgical ulcer generation. Thin sections were stained with uranyl acetate and lead citrate and examined with a Phillip's EM 300 transmission electron microscope. For SEM, specimens were post-fixed in 2% osmium for two days, coated with gold/palladium and examined with JEOL JSM-6100 scanning electron microscope (JEOL, Inc., Peabody, MA).

Giant peptic ulcers are defined as having a diameter greater than 2 cm in the case of duodenal ulcers, and greater than 3 cm in the case of gastric ulcers. The presentation is infrequent, but raises questions about the etiological factor and the definitive treatment. The literature on its physio-pathology is scarce and the cases described are unusual. The following case is presented to review the conduct to be followed in the presence of a giant gastric ulcer. We highlight the difficulty to assess the differential diagnosis of malignant pathology, trying to emphasize the value of the predictive factors of malignancy to define the conduct to follow. Finally, we focus on the relationship between the clinical presentation of gastric giant ulcer with primary gastric lymphomas and their clinical characteristics.

AbstractPeptic ulcers are a serious problem worldwide, and affect about 4 million people each year. Their etiology is connected with the presence of Helicobacter pylori, the act of smoking, drinking alcohol, being stress, and taking excessively nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, as well as steroids. The most common symptoms are abdominal pain, nausea, chest pain and fatigue, while less frequent symptoms include vomiting and weight loss. Helicobacter pylori is responsible for about 80% of gastric and 90% of duodenal ulcer cases. In this work, an analysis is made of a correlation between stomach or duodenal ulcer and gender, residence and number of patients hospitalized in the Almaty hospital №1, from 2009-2012, in order to learn about trends in the incidence of these diseases in Kazakhstan. A total number of 950 patients with stomach and duodenal ulcers, in 2009-2012, were questioned. The patient’s residence, gender and stomach or duodenal ulcer problem were taken into account in the study. The result of this work reveals that the largest amount of hospitalized patients suffering from stomach or duodenal ulcers came from urban areas. Moreover, more women than men suffered from peptic ulcers. Furthermore, the number of patients admitted to the hospital due to duodenal ulcers did not show any variation throughout the study. However, the least number of patients suffering from gastric ulcers was noticed in December 2009, and the greatest was in October and November 2011. The obtained data show that ulcers are a serious problem in Kazakhstan.

AbstractAim. The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficiency of proton pump inhibitors in the treatment of gastric and duodenal ulcers as based on literature.Materials and methods: The materials of this research are the results of 86 original studies on the effectiveness of proton pump inhibitors analysis.Methods. Descriptive, statistical, retrospective.Results and Conclusion. According to the clinical random researches, Omeprazole preparations are not included in the list due to proven better effectiveness of Esomeprazole drugs. Moreover, lansoprazole drugs are not included according to proven short-acid inhibitory effect. In addition, the brand of mentioned above preparation does not exist on the pharmaceutical market of Ukraine. Furthermore, rabeprazole preparations are presented in the research by Pariet (brand) and by the effective generic Barol, while pantoprazole preparations are represented in the research by Kontrolok (brand) and by the generic Pultset, as well as by Nolpaza. Herein, the Pantosan effect was not significantly different from the effect of Pultset and Nolpaza, but the preparation is much more expensive. In terms of efficiency (%), 4 week repair of mucosal defects was carried out by way of the following treatment regimens: Barol + Amoxicillin + Clarythromycin (90.9±6.2), Pariet + Amoxicillin + Clarythromycin (83±2.6), Kontrolok + Amoxicillin + Clarythromycin (100±1.3), Pultset + Amoxicillin + Clarythromycin (88±4.1), Nolpaza + Amoxicillin + Clarythromycin (72±4.1), Ezolonh + Amoxicillin + Clarythromycin (87.7±3.8), Neksium + Amoxicillin + Clarythromycin (96.1±3.1).
