Journal ArticleDOI
Quantitative ultrastructural studies on gastric parietal cells.
TL;DR: The data support the theory that the tubulovesicular membrane is incorporated into the secretory membrane as a result of the stimulation, and the production of acid probably takes place mainly at thesecretory surface.
Journal ArticleDOI
Two doses of omeprazole versus placebo in symptomatic erosive esophagitis: the U.S. Multicenter Study.

TL;DR: The results of this study confirm those of six multicenter, international trials in which omeprazole in doses of 20-60 mg provided a degree of esophageal mucosal healing and complete relief of reflux symptoms superior to any other medical treatment.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vagal gastric secretory stimulation by 2-deoxy-D-glucose.
TL;DR: While apparently stimulating gastric secretion in the same way as insulin hypoglycemia, 2-DG appears to have definite advantages of reliability and reproducibility and appears to be dose responsive and not an all-or-none system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vitamin B12 deficiency in hypersecretors during long-term acid suppression with proton pump inhibitors
TL;DR: This work has shown that B12 deficiency elevates methylmalonic acid and homocysteine, both additional markers of B 12 deficiency, and measuring serum B12 alone may underestimate the prevalence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electrolytes in human gastric secretion. Observations and a theory.
TL;DR: It is concluded that the process of gastric secretion is a fully integrated mechanism, with the gastric tubule comprising the basic unit of the mucosa, and this unit has been named the gastron.
