Relationship between mast cells/parietal cells and maximal/basal acid output ratio in chronic gastritis.
Mast and parietal cells were concomitantly demonstrated in biopsies from corpus mucosa of patients with various forms of chronic gastritis. The ratio of mast/parietal cells and the ratio of maximal and basal acid output were negatively correlated.
