Abstract:
The examination of intragastric proteolysis in patients operated on the perforative duodenal ulcer has been performed in 80 patients in the period up to 16 years after the surgery. The selective proximal vagotomy was performed in 65 of the patients, the trunk vagotomy--in 15 of the patients. In 55 patients the vagotomy was combined with ulcerrraphy, in 25 patients--with draining operations. The 30-35% decrease of the intragastric pepsin proteolysis was detected in patients after the vagotomy. There was no any signs of restoration of the suppressed proteolytic activity in the time period up to 16 years after the surgery. The draining operations lead to suppression of pepsin proteolysis in long-term period after the surgery and to its substitution with digestion with the pancreatic proteinases.

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 II: Pathophysiology
Damaging agents such as Helicobacter pylori, gastric acid, pepsin, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can weaken the mucosal defense, allowing hydrogen ions to infiltrate back and harm epithelial cells.
Peptic Ulcer Disease III: Clinical Manifestations and Diagnostic Studies
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.
