چکیده

The aim of this study was to determine to what extent human migrating motor complex (MMC)-related secretory phenomena are influenced by a recently discovered period of duodenal retroperistalsis during late phase III. A constant-flow perfusion technique was used to measure gastric appearance of acid, bicarbonate, pepsin, bilirubin, IgA, and duodenally infused [14C]polyethylene glycol (PEG) 4000 in 12 healthy volunteers. Interdigestive gastroduodenal motility was recorded by digital manometry. During late antral phase II and III, the gastric lumen was acidified ( P < 0.005 phase III vs. phase I) together with a marked increase in luminal pepsin output (3.1 ± 1.2 during phase III vs. 0.25 ± 0.08 kU/5 min in phase I, P < 0.01), followed by a realkalinization due to a simultaneous reduction of acid secretion and a duodenogastric reflux, aided by retrograde peristalsis, of bicarbonate and IgA but not of bilirubin, at the end of antral phase III ( P < 0.05 phase III vs. phase I values). This physiological duodenoantral reflux phenomenon may play an important role in the chemical and immunological restitution of the antral mucosal barrier function after the exposure to high acid and pepsin concentrations during antral phase III activity.

Is Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease Influenced by Duodenogastric Reflux ?

IS GASTROESOPHAGEAL REFLUX DISEASE INFLUENCED BY DUODENOGASTRIC REFLUX ? (Abstract): BACKGROUND: It is well known that the gastroesophageal reflux is a frequent disease in medical practice. A lot of factors are involved in its pathogenesis. The aim of our study was to find out if the duodenogastric reflux is one of these factors. We also looked for the pathological conditions associated with du...

Helicobacter pylori may induce bile reflux: link between H pylori and bile induced injury to gastric epithelium.

Helicobacter pylori and duodenogastric reflux are both recognised as playing aetiological roles in chronic gastritis. This study investigated whether H pylori colonisation of the antral mucosa and duodenogastric reflux are independent phenomena or have a causal relationship. Thirty eight patients (15 men, 23 women) aged (mean (SD)) 48 (17) years participated. Each patient underwent gastroscopy....

Duodenogastric reflux: clinical and therapeutic aspects.

BACKGROUND Duodenogastric reflux is believed to cause damage to gastric mucosa. Most reports on this disorder concern adult patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS 1120 children with abdominal pain were studied; endoscopic features of duodenogastric reflux were found in 92 patients. To confirm the diagnosis of duodenogastric reflux, cholescintigraphy (Tc99-HEPIDA) was performed. Children with confirme...

Profound duodenogastric reflux causes pancreatic growth in rats.

Although duodenogastric reflux is a physiological event, excessive reflux may be a pathogenetic factor in several diseases of the foregut, including cancer. Long term profound duodenogastric reflux produces pancreatic and gastric tumours in rats. The trophic effect of surgically induced duodenogastric reflux on the pancreas was investigated and the mechanisms involved were examined. Rats with p...
