[Does the duration of work disability in patients with uncomplicated duodenal ulcer affect risk of recurrence the following year? A multicenter study].
At present there is no therapeutic approach conducive to success, with the help of which the inclination to recidivation of duodenal ulcer might be restricted. In a prospective multicentric study with the help of two randomized groups of patients (group A: 13 days of disablement, group B: 37 days of disablement) was tried to prove a possible influence of the duration of the disablement on the inclination to recidivation in ulceration. In comparable groups of patients out of 99 evaluable documentations of patients in group A were found 62.5% of recidivations, in group B 68.6%. The difference was not significant. No connection could be found between duration of the disablement in ulceration and inclination to recidivation. Smokers have a distinctly higher inclination to recidivation than non-smokers.
