ABSTRACT
Objective In order to detect gastric fluid pH value,Gastrin-17 (G-17),pepsinogen Ⅰ (PGⅠ),pepsinogen Ⅱ (PGⅡ) and figure out gastric secretory function in patients of functional constipation (FC).Methods 51 healthy individuals were chosen as control group and 42 patients with FC were chosen as FC group,of which serum gastric fluid pH value,Hp ratio,G-17,PGⅠ and PGⅡ were detected and analyzed.Results Compared with control group,gastric fluid pH value were marked reduced (t=2.180,P=0.032),and G-17,PGⅠ level in blood were marked increased in FC group (G-17:t=2.703,P=0.008;PGⅠ:t=7.388,P＜0.001).Hp ratio and blood level of PGⅡ in two groups showed no significant difference (Hp ratio:x2=0.031,P=0.861;PGⅡ:t=1.666,P=0.100).Conclusion Increased gastric secretory function level were found in patients of functional constipation.It gave a hint that stimulated gastroenteritic axis existed in patients of functional constipation.
