The author shows that persistent contamination of the mucosa in ulcer patients noticeable even after ulcer healing with Helicobacter pylori leads to disordered coordination of energetic processes in immunocompetent cells. The reserve pathway becomes more active than basic pathway of oxidation, this combining with lymphocyte sensitization to the mucosal tissue. An unfavourable prognostic implication is given to a 1.5-fold inhibition of lymphocyte succinate dehydrogenase activity. If alpha-glycerophosphate dehydrogenase is 2.3 times higher than normal and leukocyte migration index is under 0.65, the prognosis is also likely to be unfavourable.

Keck School of Medicine, University of Southern California, Los Angeles, California.

The risk of gastric cancer among immigrants from countries where Helicobacter pylori is endemic greatly exceeds those born in the United States. Among patients in the Los Angeles safety-net health system, the risk of advanced and fatal gastric cancer is higher in Hispanic versus non-Hispanic patients. There is an urgent need to define whether this reflects concomitant illnesses, such as metabolic disease, occupational exposures, or differential access to H.
