PREOPERATIVE GASTRIC ACID SECRETION OF THE GASTRIC CANCER PATIENTS AND THEIR PROGNOSIS
This study was performed to evaluate how preoperative gastric acid secretion in gastric cancer patients correlated their prognosis. The results are as follows.
1) The 5-year survival rates of patients with MAO=0mEq/h, 0mEq/h<MAO≦7.0mEq/h and 7.0mEq/h<MAO were 29.2%, 73.6% and 88.4%, respectively. There were significant differences among them.
2) The patients with 7.0mEq/h<MAO had norlnal cellular immunity and low immunosuppressive glycoproteins in sera.
These results suggest that gastric cancer patients who have a potency of normal gastric acid secretion with normal cellular immunity, or who have a potency of normal immunity with normal gastric acid secretion, have a good prognosis.
