title: Antral gastrin and acid secretion in duodenal ulcer patients.
abstract: By means of intragastric instillation of meat extract, two groups of duodenal ulcer patients were identified--antral responders and antral nonresponders. Antral response was abolished ater vagotomy and drainage or vagotomy-antrectomy. The differentiation would allow for selective surgery for duodenal ulcer patients.
