THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE SECRETIONS OF THE GASTRIC MUCOSA AND ITS HISTOPATHOLOGICAL FINDINGS AS SHOWN BY RESECTED STOMACH

1. Deciding the operative indication of primary chronic gastritis, it is necessary to seize the histopathological findings of gastric mucosa. Then the possibility of deciding the atrophy of gastric mucosa by gastric analysis was studied.
2. On the 86 patients who were suffered from gastric diseases, the relationships between the gastric analysis and atrophy of gastric mucosa of resected stomach were examined.
3. Gastric analysis was carried out with hypodermic injection of 0.01 mg/kg histamine and with Katsch-Kalk's caffeine test meal.
4. Gastric mucosa of the corpus and antrum were classified into 3 grades by indicating the atrophy of the gastric proper glands, and the " Gastritis Form " was made, which was combination of atrophy of gastric mucosa in the corpus and antrum.
5. It was recognized the close relation between the atrophy of gastric mucosa in the corpus and HCI out put during 50 minutes, gastric juice volume during 50 minutes and maximum free HCI acidity after hypodermic injection of 0.01 mg/kg histamine.
6. It was also recognized the close connection between the " Gastritis Form " and maximum free HCI acidity by Katsch-Kalk's test meal.
7. It can be expected in many cases that the atrophy of gastric mucosa in the corpus and antrum was decided by results of gastric analysis.
