Abstract: | Summary Seventy-five patients with various diseases including gastric cancer, other neoplasms, liver disorders, peptic ulcers, and miscellaneous chronic diseases were studied to determine if a correlation existed between serum iron values and gastric acidity. It was found that the average serum iron values in patients with gastric anacidity, gastric carcinoma, and anemia were lower than those of patients with other neoplasms, peptic ulcers, or miscellaneous nonmalignant diseases. The absorption of iron and the relation between gastric acid and the serum iron values obtained in this study have been briefly discussed.Died June 26, 1955.Aided by grants from Lederle Medical Student Research Fellowship, and United States Public Health Service Medical Student Research Fellowship. |
