[Diagnostic criteria of pyloric helicobacter infection in peptic ulcer]
Abstract:
Helicobacter pylori (HP) in 41 patients (10 with stomach ulcer and 31 with duodenum ulcer) was found in gastro-biopsies from the stomach antrum before and after the treatment. The following methods to reveal HP were used: Giemsa staining, immunoperoxidase reaction with polyclonal monospecific antibodies against HP, urease rapid test. HP was also revealed in the blood serum by antibodies against HP by means of enzyme immunoassay. Electron microscopy was performed in 5 patients and bacteriologic study in 10 patients. Immunohistochemical method allows one to judge about real HP colonization of the gastric mucosa. Bacterioscopy with Giemsa staining gives good results but they are not true markers of HP presence this being explained by other methods. Serologic enzyme immunoassay gives an idea about the patient contamination, but not about HP eliminations as a result of treatment. Urease-test is adjuvant.

Pathophysiology of Peptic Ulcer Disease: Injurious Factors
In the antrum region, G cells secrete the gastrin hormone that binds to gastrin-cholecystokinin-B (CCK2) receptors on parietal and enterochromaffin-like (ECL) cells in the fundic glands. Simultaneously, the vagus nerve releases acetylcholine, which binds to M3...

Peptic Ulcer Disease I: Introduction
An acute ulcer, marked by superficial erosion and minimal inflammation, swiftly resolves upon identifying and addressing the underlying cause. In contrast, a chronic ulcer persists, potentially eroding through the muscular wall and forming fibrous tissue.

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.
