Dept. of Clinical Pathology and Cytology, Falun Hospital, Sweden.

Published: March 1990

In a consecutive prospective series of 208 Swedish primary peptic ulcer patients, 146 gastric, 55 duodenal and 7 in both sites, gastroduodenitis was found in 97.6% of the cases. The mucosal inflammation was associated with CP in 87% and 91% of the gastric and duodenal ulcer cases respectively. No significant correlation was found between CP colonisation and the type or severity of mucosal inflammation. Gastric metaplasia was present in only 8% of 48 bulbar ulcer cases. Ulcer healing and eradication of CP was achieved in 52% of patients treated with bismuth subnitrate in combination with erythromycin or according to the triple approach.

Background: Although bariatric and metabolic surgical methods, including duodenal-jejunal bypass (DJB), were shown to improve metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) in clinical trials and experimental rodent models, their underlying mechanisms remain unclear. The present study therefore evaluated the therapeutic effects and mechanisms of action of DJB in rats with MASLD.

Methods: Rats with MASLD were randomly assigned to undergo DJB or sham surgery.
