Abstract
BACKGROUNDS Marginal ulcer (MU) is a common complication of Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass (RYGB). The primary goal of this meta-analysis was to identify potential risk factors for MU post-RYGB. METHODS A comprehensive literature search was conducted on four databases (PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library) to identify articles published from inception to 23 May 2023 that reported risk factors linked to ulcer occurrence post-RYGB. Hazard Ratio (HR) and Odds Ratio (OR) with respective 95% CI were calculated to estimate the impact of selected risk factors on MU. The risk factors were evaluated through multivariate analyses. The estimated risk factors were subjected to a random-effects model. Subgroup analysis based on study baseline characteristics and leave-one-out sensitivity analysis were also performed to investigate the potential sources of heterogeneity and assess the robustness of the findings. RESULT Herein, 14 observational studies involving 77 250 patients were included. Diabetes, smoking, and steroid use were identified to be risk factors of MU, with pooled ORs of (1.812; 95% CI: 1.226-2.676; P =0.003), (3.491; 95% CI: 2.204-5.531; P< 0.001), and (2.804; 95% CI: 1.383-5.685; P =0.004), respectively. Other risk factors, such as alcohol consumption, male sex, and PPI use, were deemed not significant due to differences in data acquisition and effect estimates. CONCLUSION Diabetes, smoking, and steroid use were identified as independent risk factors of MU. Enhancing awareness of these identified risk factors will lead to more effective preoperative prevention and targeted postoperative interventions for patients undergoing RYGB.

Roberts-Thomson IC. How did the ancient bacterium, Helicobacter pylori, cause an epidemic of chronic duodenal ulceration? JGH OPEN 2021; 5:636-642. [PMID: 34124378 PMCID: PMC8171156 DOI: 10.1002/jgh3.12560] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2021] [Accepted: 05/04/2021] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
The association of Helicobacter pylori with chronic duodenal ulceration was a seminal observation in the short history of gastroenterology. However, H. pylori is now known to be an ancient bacterium, whereas there is persuasive evidence that the epidemic of duodenal ulceration began in the second half of the 19th century and continued into the second half of the 20th century. Possible explanations for the epidemic include genomic changes in the organism and environmental or other influences on the human host. While genomic changes resulted in the appearance of virulence factors, these seem likely to have appeared thousands of years ago with minimal effects on gastritis because of coexisting suppression of gastric immunity. In contrast, the emergence of duodenal ulceration is best explained by a change in the pattern of gastritis from inflammation involving the antrum and body in most individuals to a significant minority (10-20%) with antral gastritis but with relative sparing of the body of the stomach. In the latter group, the increase in serum gastrin (particularly G17) associated with antral gastritis had trophic effects on gastric parietal cells with an increase in the parietal cell mass and hypersecretion of gastric acid. Hypersecretion of acid is seen as the major risk factor for duodenal ulceration with significant contributions from environmental factors including smoking and use of nonsteroidal, anti-inflammatory drugs. Host factors favoring changes in the pattern of gastritis include delayed acquisition of infection and improved nutrition; both with enhancing effects on mucosal immunity.

Abstract
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) inhibit H+, K+-ATPase, an enzyme which is the final step of gastric acid secretion and is selectively located in the gastric parietal cells. PPIs block the enzyme in a covalent and irreversible binding manner, thus providing better efficacy than previous pharmacological agents such as antacids and histamine H2 receptor antagonists. Although PPIs have been the first-line therapeutic option for acid related diseases (ARDs), there are several limitations to their efficacy, i.e. short half-life in blood, insufficient acid suppression especially at night, necessity of repeated dosages for full action, and large variation in efficacy among patients due to CYP2C19 polymorphism. To overcome these shortcomings, we performed a high-throughput random screening using in-house chemical libraries and further lead optimization to look for the most relevant clinical candidate compounds. As the results of these researches, we discovered vonoprazan fumarate, a novel gastric acid antisecretory agent which inhibits H+, K+-ATPase in a reversible and K+-competitive manner. Vonoprazan exerted a more potent and longer lasting inhibitory effect than lansoprazole on gastric acid secretion in preclinical studies, presumably by its high accumulation profile in the gastric parietal cells. It also exhibited a rapid onset of action and prolonged inhibition of intragastric acidity in humans and showed remarkable effects on multiple ARDs including erosive esophagitis and Helicobacter pylori eradication. Vonoprazan fumarate was approved in 2014 for clinical use in Japan. Vonoprazan is a new therapeutic option which can potentially improve outcomes compared with conventional PPI-based treatments for ARDs.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) is one of the leading causes of gastric diseases such as chronic gastritis, peptic ulcer, and gastric adenocarcinoma. The current treatment of H. pylori infection with antibiotics and proton pump inhibitors has several limitations, including poor adherence and intrinsic patient-related factors, drug resistance, and the absence of adequate treatments. This review summarizes the current therapeutic approaches to eradicating H. pylori, the difficulties associated with its treatment, and several new perspectives aimed at improving existing treatment strategies.

Abstract
Helicobacter pylori is the major cause of chronic gastritis and peptic ulcers. Since the classification as a group 1 carcinogenic by International Agency for Research on Cancer, the importance of the complete H. pylori eradication has obtained a novel meaning. Hence, several studies have been made in order to deepen the knowledge in therapy strategies. However, the current therapy presents unsatisfactory eradication rates due to the lack of therapeutic compliance, antibiotic resistance, the degradation of antibiotics at gastric pH and their insufficient residence time in the stomach. Novel approaches have been made in order to overcome these limitations. The purpose of this review is to provide an overview about the current therapy and its limitations, while highlighting the possibility of using micro- and nanotechnology to develop gastric drug delivery systems, overcoming these difficulties in the future.

Abstract
AIMS Polaprezinc (PZ), which consists of l-carnosine and zinc, is widely used to treat gastric ulcers. We compared the effects of PZ with those of rebamipide (RM) on the expression of inflammatory cytokines, antioxidants, growth factors, and heat shock proteins (HSP) in a rat model. MAIN METHODS Seventy Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to test groups according to the dose of PZ at 5, 10, or 30 mg/kg or RM at 10, 30, or 100 mg/kg. Next, we obtained ulcer indices from rats with ethanol-induced gastric mucosal damage. Western blot analysis was used to evaluate the expression of various target proteins. KEY FINDINGS Pathological ulcer indices in the PZ and RM groups were significantly lower than those in the control group. The levels of inflammatory cytokines (interleukin 1β [IL-1β], IL-6, IL-8, and tumor necrosis factor α) decreased, whereas the levels of platelet-derived growth factor-B, vascular endothelial growth factor, and nerve growth factor significantly increased after PZ administration. Furthermore, the expression of antioxidants (superoxide dismutase 1 [SOD-1], SOD-2, heme oxygenase-1, glutathione S-transferase, peroxidredoxin-1, and peroxidredoxin-5) was significantly higher in the PZ group, and the levels of HSP 90, 70, 60, 47, 27, and 10 significantly increased with an increase in PZ dose. SIGNIFICANCE In a rat model of ethanol-induced gastric mucosal damage, PZ administration ameliorated ethanol-induced mucosal injury and showed protective effects on the mucosa by reducing the levels of inflammatory cytokines and increasing the expression of antioxidant enzymes and growth factors. Furthermore, PZ showed cytoprotective effects by increasing the HSP levels.

Abstract
Wine may cause stomach irritation due to its stimulatory effect on gastric acid secretion, although the mechanisms by which wine or components thereof activate pathways of gastric acid secretion are poorly understood. Gastric pH was measured with a noninvasive intragastric probe, demonstrating that administration of 125 mL of white or red wine to healthy volunteers stimulated gastric acid secretion more potently than the administration of equivalent amounts of ethanol. Between both beverages, red wine showed a clear trend for being more active in stimulating gastric acid secretion than white wine (p = 0.054). Quantification of the intracellular proton concentration in human gastric tumor cells (HGT-1), a well-established indicator of proton secretion and, in turn, stomach acid formation in vivo, confirmed the stronger effect of red wine as compared to white wine. RT-qPCR experiments on cells exposed to red wine also revealed a more pronounced effect than white wine on the fold change expression of genes associated with gastric acid secretion. Of the quantitatively abundant organic acids in wine, malic acid and succinic acid most actively stimulated proton secretion in vitro. However, addition of ethanol to individual organic acids attenuated the secretory effect of tartaric acid, but not that of the other organic acids. It was concluded that malic acid for white wine and succinic acid for red wine are key organic acids that contribute to gastric acid stimulation.

Abstract
The presence of gastric acid plays a critical role in the mechanisms of NSAIDs/aspirin-associated gastric and duodenal mucosal injury and ulceration. The role of gastric acid and its relationship to NSAIDs/aspirin in mucosal damage, ulcer and ulcer complications continues to be an important concern because of the increasing worldwide use of NSAIDs and aspirin. Acid suppression continues to be an important prevention strategy for NSAID-associated gastric and duodenal ulcer and ulcer complications. While a coxib or an NSAID and PPI in combination are considered to have comparable safety profiles, the evidence from direct comparisons in high-risk patients is limited, and the cardiovascular safety of coxibs and NSAIDs remains a concern especially in patients with a high risk of cardiovascular disease. An evaluation of individual gastrointestinal and cardiovascular risks and benefits, selection of the most appropriate NSAID and dose for each particular patient should always be emphasized. Twice daily PPI is more appropriate to protect a patient who is taking NSAIDs twice daily. PPI co-therapy is still recommended in patients receiving dual antiplatelet treatment, although conflicting results have been reported about adverse drug interactions between PPIs and clopidogrel.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW The review summarizes the past year's literature regarding the regulation of gastric exocrine and endocrine secretion, both basic science and clinical. RECENT FINDINGS Gastric acid secretion is an elaborate and dynamic process that is regulated by neural (efferent and afferent), hormonal (e.g. gastrin), and paracrine (e.g. histamine, ghrelin, somatostatin) pathways as well as mechanical (e.g. distension) and chemical (e.g. amino acids) stimuli. Secretion of hydrochloric acid (HCl) by parietal cells involves translocation of HK-ATPase-containing cytoplasmic tubulovesicles to the apical membrane with subsequent electroneutral transport of hydronium ions in exchange for potassium. The main apical potassium channel is KCNQ1 which, when activated, assembles with its β-subunit KCNE2 to function as a constitutively open, voltage-insensitive, and acid-resistant luminal potassium channel. Proton pump inhibitors block acid secretion by covalently binding to cysteine residues accessible from the luminal surface of the HK-ATPase. Potassium-competitive ATPase blockers (P-CABs) act by competing for K on the luminal surface of HK-ATPase. As they are acid-stable and do not require acid-dependent activation, P-CABs hold promise for rapid and prolonged inhibition of acid secretion. SUMMARY We continue to make progress in our understanding of the physiologic regulation of gastric acid secretion. A better understanding of the pathways and mechanisms regulating acid secretion should lead to improved management of patients with acid-induced disorders.

Abstract
Lactose and food intolerance cause a wide range of gut and systemic symptoms, including gas, gut pain, diarrhoea or constipation, severe headaches, severe fatigue, loss of cognitive functions such as concentration, memory and reasoning, muscle and joint pain, heart palpitations, and a variety of allergies (Matthews and Campbell, 2000; Matthews et al., 2005; Waud et al., 2008). These can be explained by the production of toxic metabolites from gut bacteria, as a result of anaerobic digestion of carbohydrates and other foods, not absorbed in the small intestine. These metabolites include alcohols, diols such as butan 2,3 diol, ketones, acids, and aldehydes such as methylglyoxal (Campbell et al., 2005, 2009). These 'toxins' induce calcium signals in bacteria and affect their growth, thereby acting to modify the balance of microflora in the gut (Campbell et al., 2004, 2007a,b). These bacterial 'toxins' also affect signalling mechanisms in cells around the body, thereby explaining the wide range of symptoms in people with food intolerance. This new mechanism also explains the most common referral to gastroenterologists, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and the illness that afflicted Charles Darwin for 50 years (Campbell and Matthews, 2005a,b). We propose it will lead to a new understanding of the molecular mechanism of type 2 diabetes and some cancers.
