  • Progress Report Duodenal Ulcer in Black Populations in Africa South Of
    Gut: first published as 10.1136/gut.16.7.564 on 1 July 1975. Downloaded from Gut, 1975, 16, 564-576 Progress report Duodenal ulcer in black populations in Africa south of the Sahara The Geographical Distribution of Duodenal Ulcer The geographical distribution of a disease may provide valuable clues with regard to its aetiology. Likewise any historical changes in prevalence, associated with changes in the mode of living, may give additional infor- mation. In this report the prevalence of duodenal ulcer in Africa, south of the Sahara, is reviewed and areas of high and low prevalence are identified. The information has been collected in several ways: by reviewing all the available literature; by extensive correspondence, personal interviews, and visits; and by replies to questionnaires sent out by Mr D. P. Burkitt of the Medical Research Council to a large number of mission hospitals, many of which have sent monthly returns over a period of three years. There are many difficult problems to overcome in trying to establish the prevalence of a disease with a low mortality such as duodenal ulcer. These problems are considerable in a developed country and much greater in developing countries. The authors have endeavoured only to establish whether duodenal ulcer is a common or a rare problem in a given area. It has not been for the most part to use any exact parameters. In making an possible http://gut.bmj.com/ assessment it was noted whether the diagnosis had been made on clinical findings, x-ray evidence, surgical experience, or necropsy examinations. Many hospitals are without x-ray facilities.
