Effects of Pepsinogen C Gene Polymorphisms on Serum Pepsinogen I and Serum Pepsinogen II Levels.

Estimation of serum pepsinogen.

Serum levels of pepsinogen I, pepsinogen II, and gastrin-17 in the course of Helicobacter pylori gastritis in pediatrics.

To the Editors: as a comment to the editorial of Oderda et al: In an interesting editorial in this issue of the journal, Oderda et al (1) review which tests may be used to diagnose Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) in children. Some are invasive (i.e. upper gastro-intestinal endoscopy and multiple gastric biopsies), and some are non invasive (i.e. serology, C-urea breath test and stool antigen de...

Serum gastrin 17, pepsinogen I and pepsinogen II in atrophic gastritis patients living in North-East of Iran

BACKGROUND Gastric carcinoma is the second most common cause of cancer-related death in Iran. It is well-known that atrophic gastritis is a major risk factor for gastric cancer, which leads to variations in the serum levels of gastrin 17 (G-17), pepsinogen I (P-I), and pepsinogen II (P-II). The aim of this study was to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of these serum biomarkers in the early d...

Behaviour of acid secretion , gastrin release , serum pepsinogen I ,

The behaviour of basal and stimulated acid secretion, gastrin release, serum pepsinogen I, and gastric emptying of liquids was studied in 19 consecutive patients with Helicobacter pylori positive duodenal ulcer, over a foliow up period of six months. Eleven patients were studied before and at three and six months after eradication with lansoprazole plus amoxicillin and tinidazole (case group), ...
