Relationship between basal serum gastrin concentrations and gastric acid secretion in peptic ulcer disease.

In large groups of control subjects and gastric, prepyloric, and duodenal ulcer patients basal gastrin concentration as basal and maximal acid output was measured. All groups had equal basal gastrin concentrations, except gastric ulcer patients, who had higher values (p less than 0.001). A significant negative correlation was found between acid output and basal gastrin in controls and prepyloric ulcer patients. In duodenal ulcer a similar correlation was seen only after exclusion of gastrin and basal acid hypersecretors, and in gastric ulcer no correlation could be found. The characteristic pattern for gastrin and acid secretion was in prepyloric ulcer patients almost like that in controls, whereas gastric ulcer patients seemed more heterogeneous. In duodenal ulcer differences may be explained by a defective feedback inhibition of acid.

The effect of calcium on hyperoxaluria following jejunoileal bypass in morbid obesity.

In order to investigate the effect on urinary oxalic acid excretion, ten patients with jejunoileostomy for morbid obesity were treated with oral calcium. We found a statistically significant decrease. The investigation suggests that the oral administration of calcium alone is not sufficient, in a dosage of 900 mg daily, to normalize the urinary oxalate excretion. The indications for calcium therapy in this group of patients is discussed.
