“…In other conditions the presence of AG is related to increasing age (Joske et al, 1955;Coghill, 1960;Edwards and Coghill, 1966). Anaemia AG has been reported in about 40% of patients with iron deficiency anaemia (Davidson and Markson, 1955;Badenoch et al, 1957;Coghill, 1960). In this series only 21 patients (14%) had a haemoglobin of less than 12 g/dl after operation.…”

SUMMARY A partial gastrectomy of Billroth I or II type was performed in a series of 146 patients with peptic ulcer. Gastric biopsy was carried out two years later and the histology of the specimens compared with that of the body mucosa at the time of operation. In 138 patients without body atrophic gastritis (AG) before operation this condition was found in 74 (54 %) two years after (46 % of DU patients and 73 % of GU patients). Those with antral or pyloric canal ulcers were particularly liable to develop AG (81 %). Apart from site of ulcer various other factors possibly associated with the development of AG were examined: no positive correlations were found with the possible exception of anaemia. Gastric parietal cell antibodies were not found in any patient with AG tested. The cause of gastritis after partial gastrectomy and its possible relationship with gastric carcinoma are discussed.

“…Davidson and Markson (1955) and Witts (1956) suggest that iron deficiency as such causes chronic gastritis and achlorhydria. However, Lees and Rosenthal (1958), Coghill (1960), and Ikkala and Siurala (1964) could not find any evidence to support this hypothesis.…”

EDITORIAL SYNOPSIS The authors describe the results of a study of the gastric secretion and gastric histology of 15 control subjects and 30 patients with tropical sprue. Patients with sprue show a marked depression of gastric secretion and varying degrees of gastritis as compared with control subjects. There is no relation between the severity of the gastric lesion and the severity of the intestinal lesion. The possible aetiology of the gastritis is discussed.

“…However, the follow-up studies of Siurala et al (15) and Siurala and V uorinen (17) suggest that gastritis, once established, tends to remain and to progress, and that a complete healing is rare. Accordingly, the lack of gastric response to treatment excludes by no means the possibility that gastritis is caused by iron deficiency, as has been suggested by W itts (21), Badenoch (6). Iron deficiency is known to cause angular stomatitis and changes in the nails and tongue.…”
