The effects on gastric acid secretion and serum gastrin of 4 weeks treatment with famotidine 40 mg nocte or cimetidine 800 mg nocte (at 2200 h) were studied in 16 patients with previous duodenal ulcer. Patients were studied before commencing therapy, on days 5, 12 and 26 of treatment, and on days 3, 10 and 24 after completion of therapy. In contrast to cimetidine, basal and pentagastrin-stimulated gastric acid secretion measured 12 h after dosing was significantly inhibited during treatment with famotidine. In addition, with famotidine there was inhibition of stimulated gastric acid secretion at 3 and 24 days after completion of treatment. Fasting serum gastrin measured 12 h after dosing was not significantly altered by either drug.

Background: Gastric cancer (GC) ranks as the fourth leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide, with most patients diagnosed at advanced stages due to the absence of reliable early detection biomarkers.
Methods: RNA-sequencing was conducted to identify the differentially expressed genes between GC tissues and adjacent normal tissues. CCK8, EdU, colony formation, transwell, flow cytometry and xenograft assays were adopted to explore the biological function of ZBTB10 and betulinic acid (BA) in GC progression.

Background: Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are widely used, including among cancer patients, to manage gastroesophageal reflux and other gastric acid-related disorders. Recent evidence suggests associations between long-term PPI use and higher risks for various adverse health outcomes, including greater mortality.
Aim: To investigate the association between PPI use and all-cause mortality among cancer patients by a comprehensive analysis after adjustment for various confounders and a robust methodological approach to minimize bias.
