Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 Abstract The aetiology of human peptic ulcer disease is multifactorial. Its association with anti-prostaglandin drugs has lead to the suggestion that mucosal deficiency of prostaglandins, which are known to be protective to the gastrointestinal tract, may be an aetiological factor. The thesis documents a short history of duodenal ulceration and previous work into its pathogenesis and epidemiology. The history of prostaglandins in the gastrointestinal tract, the phenomena of mucoprotection and the evidence for the protective role of these substances are explored. A method for using endoscopic biopsies to assess the endogenous ability to synthesise prostaglandin E 2 (PGE2 ) is described and validated. Synthesis of iPGE 2 (immunoreactive PGE 2 ) in the upper gastrointestinal tract in control subjects is detailed and the effect of demographic factors explored. Synthesis of iPGE2 in patients with duodenal ulceration is estimated and related to all stages of the disease and to histological and histochemical analyses. The human work suggested a deficiency in iPGE 2 in patients with duodenal ulceration, and the timing of this deficiency in relation to ulcer formation is explored in the cysteamine rat model of duodenal ulceration. 2.

  • Drug Class Review Proton Pump Inhibitors
    Drug Class Review Proton Pump Inhibitors Preliminary Scan Report December 2014 The purpose of Drug Effectiveness Review Project reports is to make available information regarding the comparative clinical effectiveness and harms of different drugs. Reports are not usage guidelines, nor should they be read as an endorsement of or recommendation for any particular drug, use, or approach. Oregon Health & Science University does not recommend or endorse any guideline or recommendation developed by users of these reports. Scan conducted by: Sujata Thakurta, MPA:HA Drug Effectiveness Review Project Marian McDonagh, PharmD, Principal Investigator Pacific Northwest Evidence-based Practice Center Roger Chou, MD, Director Marian McDonagh, PharmD, Associate Director Oregon Health & Science University Copyright © 2014 by Oregon Health & Science University Portland, Oregon 97239. All rights reserved. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this preliminary updated literature scan process is to provide the Participating Organizations with a preview of the volume and nature of new research that has emerged subsequent to the previous full review process. Provision of the new research presented in this report is meant to assist with Participating Organizations’ consideration of allocating resources toward a full report update, a single drug addendum, or a summary review. Comprehensive review, quality assessment, and synthesis of evidence from the full publications of the new research presented in this report would follow only under the condition that the Participating Organizations ruled in favor of a full update. The literature search for this report focuses only on new randomized controlled trials, and actions taken by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) since the last report. Other important studies could exist.
