Abstract: | Insulin, glucagon and C-peptide content in the blood was assayed with the use of commercial radioimmune kits (Diagnostic, USA, and Oris, France). A total of 93 peptic ulcer patients (35 with duodenal peptic ulcer, 28 with gastric ulcer, 16 after Billroth-I resection, and 14 after Billroth-II resection) and 25 patients with chronic gastritis attended by secretory insufficiency were investigated. The study was conducted on empty stomach and after a test breakfast containing 57 g of protein, 63 g of fat, 103 g of carbohydrates that comprised 1212 kcal. The highest changes in hormone incretion were recorded in patients with peptic ulcer disease after Billroth-I and Billroth-II resection, the lowest--in patients with chronic gastritis attended by secretory insufficiency. |
