Dietary intakes and adipose tissue levels of linoleic acid in peptic ulcer disease

Abstract: Adipose tissue levels of linoleic acid were determined from biopsies of subcutaneous abdominal fat of normal healthy controls (n 40) and from two patient groups with endoscopically evaluated non-ulcer dyspepsia (n 40) or peptic ulcer disease (n 38). The level (g/lOO g) of adipose tissue linoleic acid in the normal healthy controls (150 (SD 4.1)) was significantly (P < 0.05) greater than that in patients with non-ulcer dyspepsia (12.8 (SD 3.5)) and in patients with peptic ulcer disease (11.7 (SD 2.7)).

“…We found a significant positive association between spicy food consumption and CUD. In line with our findings, Kearney et al 20 reported that patients with non-ulcer dyspepsia consumed more spicy foods than those with a duodenal ulcer or the control group. In a case-control study, the consumption of spicy foods was more common in CUD patients than in healthy participants.…”

“…It is interesting to notice that many of these dietary items have been associated to the generation of gastrointestinal symptoms in previous studies assessing patients with FD, irritable bowel syndrome, or other motility disorders [5,7,8]. The mechanisms by which dietary factors induce dyspeptic symptoms still need clarification.…”

“…A reduced amount of linoleic acid in fat biopsies was found in patients with peptic ulcer (Kearney et al, 1989). Other studies have not been able to reproduce this from analyses of the content of linoleic acid in subcutaneous biopsies (Seidelin et al, 1993).…”
