BACKGROUND The aetiology of non-ulcer dyspepsia and a possible connection to peptic ulcer disease is debated. This paper discusses this problem in a population based study. AIMS The relation between non-ulcer dyspepsia and peptic ulcer disease was explored by the distribution in the general population and their associations to demographic, lifestyle, and psychological factors. METHODS All i...
BACKGROUND Despite the relatively high prevalence of gastroparesis and functional dyspepsia, the aetiology and pathophysiology of these disorders remain incompletely understood. Similarly, the diagnostic and treatment options for these two disorders are relatively limited despite recent advances in our understanding of both disorders. PURPOSE This manuscript reviews the advances in the unders...
Background/Aims There have been no studies investigating the distribution of abnormal gastroesophageal flap valve (GEFV) among patients with dyspepsia, non-erosive reflux disease (NERD), and reflux esophagitis (RE) in the same set of patients. The aims of this study are to investigate (1) the association between GEFV and gastroesophageal reflux disease questionnaire (GERDQ) score, and (2) the d...
The prevalence of primary metronidazole resistance of Helicobacter pylori was studied in one Dutch hospital from 1993 to 1996 and in two additional Dutch hospitals in 1993 and 1996. All cultures of antral biopsy specimens yielding H. pylori in the study period were evaluated, except those from patients who had received anti-H. pylori treatment; 1,037 H. pylori strains, all from different patien...
BACKGROUND/AIMS The precise mechanism of functional dyspepsia is yet to be elucidated. Helicobacter pylori infection and psychiatric disorders are implicated in the etiology. We aimed to determine the prevalence of psychiatric co-morbid disorders in patients with Helicobacter pylori-positive functional dyspepsia and the impact of existing psychiatric disorders on symptomatic response following ...
Introduction The respective roles of general practitioners and specialists in the management of most diseases is not clearly defined and dyspepsia is no exception. Ideally, the division of tasks should be based on the characteristics of diVerent diseases and on specific objectives. The prevalence of dyspepsia ranges between 20 and 40% in industrialised countries and roughly 25% of patients seek...
The prevalence of sleep disturbances was studied in patients with severe non-ulcer dyspepsia. It was also considered if the change in sleep pattern was associated with changes in the rhythmic fasting motor activity of the gastrointestinal tract, and if motor events correlate with the patient's symptoms. Motor activity in the duodenum was monitored over a 24 hour period under freely ambulatory c...
Dyspepsia and intestinal worm infestation are both common clinical conditions in a developing country like Kenya and thus this study was designed to look at the correlation between the two in a referral gastroenterology clinic at Kenyatta National Hospital. One hundred and twenty five patients with dyspepsia had their stool, duodenal aspirate and duodenal biopsy analysed for evidence of intesti...
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is one of the most common human bacterial infections with prevalence rates between 10-80% depending upon geographical location, age and socioeconomic status. H. pylori is commonly found in patients complaining of dyspepsia and is a common cause of gastritis. During the course of their infection, people living with HIV (PLHIV) often have a variety of gastrointesti...
In Central Europe and in South Africa duodenal ulcer disease has been reported to occur twice as often in migrant workers as in the indigenous population. To investigate the reasons for this phenomenon the joint effect of occupation and nationality on the prevalence of gastric and duodenal ulcer was studied in a survey of 73,000 active members of the German workforce. Non-ulcer dyspepsia and ga...
