“…There is also a very strong association with lack of fresh fruits and vegetables and with vitamin C levels [39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48][49]. and might account for what otherwise appear as random events [8,34,50,51]. Why one individual in a family would be singled out is unknown, but it is tempting to speculate that differences in dietary preferences, and number and timing of febrile illness in childhood, which transiently inhibits acid secretion and might allow any H. pylori that are present to begin the cycle of corpus inflammation, reduced acid secretion, further inflammation, etc.…”

“…We therefore tested the ability of patients to secrete gastric acid during and after unselected enteric infections and investigated the effect of proposed modulators of gastric acid secretion: co-infection with Giardia duodenalis (= G. lamblia ) (see H aas & B ucken , 1967) or Strongyloides stercoralis (see J ones , 1950). the use of betel nut or cigarettes (L anas & H irschowitz , 1992), patient age (W eaver , 1995), anaemia (D avidson & M arkson , 1955), and fever (C hang , 1933).…”

In developing countries many enteric infections are caused by acid-sensitive pathogens. Failure of the gastric acid barrier to infection has been reported in cholera but gastric acid secretion has been little studied in other enteric infections. We therefore studied basal and stimulated gastric acid in 185 Bangladeshi men admitted to hospital for the treatment of enteric infection. Patients with dysentery (amoebiasis, n=24 and shigellosis, n= 19) and culture-negative diarrhoea (n=69) had similar mean gastric acid levels (basal, 3-5 mmol/h; stimulated, 11-17 mmol/h), which remained stable in those patients studied throughout 12 weeks of convalescence. In contrast, patients with secretory diarrhoea caused by cholera or enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) had low gastric acid levels (P

“…In 1931, he published another research article entitled the blood volume in hyperthyroidism on Journal of Clinical Investigation , which was also received extensive attention from peer scientists worldwide (Chang, 1931 ). In the 1930s, he created the first gastroenterology group in PUMCH and published several research articles on gastric secretion function (Chang, 1933 ). Since then, Dr. Zhang developed into a well-known clinician gradually.…”
