Decision analysis in evaluation of hypergastrinemia
Hypergastrinemia and gastric acid hypersecretion are the principal laboratory features of Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. Decision and cost-effectiveness analyses were employed in the present study to compare and contrast the diagnostic strategies of initial gastric analysis followed by secretin infusion test versus secretin infusion test alone in the ...

Gastric duplication cyst causing hypergastrinemia in an infant
Abstract Gastric duplication cysts are rare congenital anomalies, with fewer than 10% occurring in the stomach. We report a 14‐month‐old girl presenting with failure to thrive, recurrent emesis, hematemesis, and severe duodenitis with ulceration. Laboratory evaluation revealed marked hypergastrinemia (1781 pg/mL), and initial imaging was unrevealing ...

Abstract Background Current treatment options for equine gastric ulcer syndrome (EGUS), such as omeprazole—a proton pump inhibitor (PPI)—have notable limitations, including the need for administration on an empty stomach. Potassium‐competitive acid blockers (P‐CABs), such as vonoprazan, are a newer class of acid suppressants that offer several ...
