Herbal medicines could be an effective treatment human gastric ulcers. This study aimed investigate effect of AGAR-HP hard capsules on cysteamine-induced gastric-duodenal ulcers experimental rats. The animals were divided into five groups: Group 1 (control) group 2 (...

background : many  helicobacter pylori strains express adhesin proteins that bind to specific  host-cell  macromolecule  receptors,  like sialic acid binding adhesion ( saba ).    saba-expressing  strains have been associated with gastric cancer  and  negatively  associated   with  duodenal   ulcers. the  aim  of  this study  was  to  determine   the  status  of   saba   gene  of   h.  pylori  ...

A WRITER, recently reviewing the known facts of the etiology of peptic ulcer, comments on the well-known observation that it is found in that part of the gastrointestinal tract that is directly exposed to gastric juice, and is subjected to the greatest mechanical stress by the passage of the gastric contents.1 Another established fact is the frequent association of ulcer with hyperchlorhydria, ...

H. pylori, flagellated organism, colonize the gastric epithelium of 50% of the world’s population. Complications of infection include gastritis, peptic ulcers, mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue lymphoma (MALT), and gastric cancer. The flagella promote motility in the mucus layer. The organism binds to antigens on gastric epithelial cells, thus preventing mechanical clearance. The organism hydro...

In elective surgery of duodenal ulcers (DU), postoperative mortality reaches 4–6%, with perforation the ulcer – 5–8%, bleeding 20–30%. At same time, leading cause is failure stump, which occurs in 0.4–4.4% patients, significantly increases gastric cancer due to “difficult” ulcers. The authors have developed improved methods and techniques that ensure safety surgical intervention case DU facilit...

Helicobacter pylori (H pylori) eradication heals chronic active type B gastritis and dramatically changes the natural history of duodenal ulcer disease. There are few data concerning the role of anti-H pylori treatment in gastric ulcer disease. A total of 83 patients presenting with H pylori positive active gastric ulcer disease were treated with omeprazole and antibiotics (amoxicillin, ciprofl...

aim : the purpose of the present study was to evaluate the number and proportion of various causes of upper gastrointestinal bleeding and actual numbers of non-nsaid, non- helicobacter pylori ( h.pylori ) peptic ulcers seen in endoscopy of these patients. background : the number and the proportion of patients with non- h.pylori , non-nsaids peptic ulcer disease leading to upper gastrointestinal...
