  • Title: Effects of parenteral secretin--cholecystokinin and of duodenal acid perfusion on gastric secretion in duodenal ulcer patients.

    Abstract:
    The effect of parenteral secretin-cholecystokinin and duodenal acid perfusion on broth-stimulated gastric acid secretion was studied in 11 duodenal ulcer patients. Statistically significant inhibition occurred in both experimental conditions. The effect of secretin-cholecystokinin was more marked than the effect of duodenal acid perfusion. A poorly responsive subgroup of patients appeared to be responsible for the diminished inhibitory effect of duodenal acid perfusion. In this poorly responsive group there was a diminished duodenal volume response as well as diminished duodenal acid clearing. We conclude that there may exist a diminished release of gastrointestinal hormones such as secretin and cholecystokinin in certain duodenal ulcer patients.
