[Processes of cyclicity in the course of ulcer disease].
4171 cases with exacerbation of peptic ulcer were identified at endoscopic examination of 23,779 patients. Changes in metabolic-trophic processes (MTP) in gastric mucosa (GM) were studied in 210 patients with duodenal ulcer. A complex chronobiological correlation exists between solar activity and progress of peptic ulcer. Cyclic alterations in MTP were detected in GM. Fluctuations were found at all the levels of body functioning--from systemic structures to molecular ones. The data obtained can be used for optimization of preventive measures in ulcer patients.
