title: [Analysis of the etiologic significance of nutrition factors in the occurrence of peptic ulcer in railroad workers].
abstract: Unified encoding questionnaires designed for special purposes were used to study the etiological importance of nutrition factors in the occurrence of peptic ulcer in workers of the locomotive teams at the Alma-Ata railway. The medico-information questionnaire consisted of 296 items. The processing of 898 questionnaires with the use of computer made it possible to discover a number of risk factors of the development of peptic ulcer in the given occupational group. The use of the method of balanced groups (paired copies) enabled one to specify certain factors promoting the occurrence of peptic ulcer in workers of the locomotive teams. The following factors turned out to be statistically significant: irregular meals (less than 3 times a day), living on cold food, the daily use of fried dishes, hurried meals, and hearty supper consisting of three courses. The data obtained may be of importance for the design of the methods preventing the disease under consideration.
