   Keywords : Epidemiology; esophagogastroduodenoscopy EGD ; peptic ulcer disease PUD ; population-based.;

   Abstract : Introduction: The pattern of symptoms and perception of disease among patients seeking care does, due to health care seeking behaviour, most probably not reflect the true health status in the general population. Upper esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD) is considered to be gold standard for upper gastrointestinal (GI) disease assessment, but is seldom used in epidemiological studies. READ MORE

   Abstract : Acid related diseases like GERD, duodenal-and gastric ulcers and H. Pylori-positive peptic ulcer disease are primarily managed by reducing gastric acidity. Irreversible proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) inhibit gastric acid secretion effectively throughout the day by irreversibly inhibiting the gastric proton pump, H+, K+-ATPase, in the parietal cells.
