Mealtime versus nighttime acid inhibition
1992
This study was carried out in order to compare the effects of mealtime and bedtime regimens of ranitidine on gastric acidity. Fifteen duodenal ulcer patients in clinical remission were randomized to receive in single-blind fashion either placebo, ranitidine 300 mg at night (2200 hr) or ranitidine 150 mg three times a day given before each of the three daily meals (1800, 0800 and 1200 hr). Over 24 hr, the two active treatments produced a significantly greater acid inhibition than placebo, while the single daily regimen was superior to the three times a day regimen of ranitidine in terms of both rise in pH values (P less than 0.001) and duration of action expressed as time spent above 3.0 pH …

Variability in individual response to various doses of omeprazole. Implications for antiulcer therapy.
1994
This study was carried out in order to perform a combined prospective assessment of the individual pharmacodynamic response and of duodenal ulcer healing in patients treated with three different doses of omeprazole. Ninety-nine patients with endoscopically proven duodenal ulcers were subdivided into three parallel groups of 33 cases, who were randomly assigned to receive orally at 0800 hr, in single blind fashion, either 10 mg, 20 mg, or 40 mg of omeprazole. All of them underwent continuous intragastric pH monitoring both in basal conditions and on the fifth day of each dose regimen; ulcer healing was then assessed endoscopically after four weeks of treatment. All three doses of omeprazole …
Time pattern of gastric acidity in Barrett's esophagus.
1996
Increased gastroesophageal acid reflux is frequently found in patients with Barrett's esophagus, and it has been hypothesized that gastric acid hypersecretion could be an important factor aggravating the exposure of esophageal mucosa to acid and then contributing to the development of this disorder. The aim of the present study was to assess whether the circadian pattern of gastric acidity differs between refluxer patients with and without Barrett's esophagus and normal subjects. Continuous 24-hr gastric pH monitoring was performed in 119 healthy volunteers, 20 patients with Barrett's esophagus, 37 patients with moderate and 10 patients with severe reflux esophagitis without Barrett's esoph…
