- Abstract: Peptic ulcer is known to rank very high among the diseases of the gastrointestinal system which seem most prevalent in this country. Although it's incidence in this country is difficult to know with any degree of precision at present because few statistical reports are available, it is frequently encountered in our daily practice. Many studies on the pathogenesis of the disease from the clincial aspect as well as the experimental, have been undertaken by many investigators. No definite conclusions, however, have been arrived at, and thus more diverse and intensified research is urgently required. The following studies, carried out in an effort to further elucidate the pathogenic mechanism, are reported here.
