[Central and intracardiac hemodynamics in patients with duodenal ulcer and Helicobacter infection]
Abstract:
The study of central hemodynamics, indices for 24-hour ECG monitoring and microcirculation in 97 patients with peptic ulcer of the duodenum (DU) (57 men and 40 women) who ranged from 21 to 65 years old with regard for the presence of H. pylori infection and ischemic heart disease (IHD) permitted coming to the conclusion that ingestion of food in DU patients results in perversion of the hemodynamic response manifested by drop in the stroke (SI) and cardiac (CI) indices. Arresting of signs of exacerbation of the ulcer process is accompanied by normalization of the reaction of central hemodynamics to the food ingestion presenting as increase in SI and CI. The presence of H. pylori in elderly DU patients has been found to contribute to more aggressive course of IHD.

Few clinical manifestations differentiate gastric ulcers from duodenal ulcers. Distinctions in the location, timing, and pain relief are crucial for healthcare providers in differentiating between gastric and duodenal ulcers during clinical assessments.
