On the basis of investigations designed to study the condition of intragastric proteolysis and membrane digestion in the small intestine in 148 patients it has been found out that peptic ulcer is accompanied by enhancement of digestive processes in the stomach and by decrease thereof in the small intestine. With the development of peptic ulcer complications digestive disorders get aggravated, which fact leads to various manifestations of the enteral syndrome. A conclusion has been reached that study into intragastric proteolysis and membrane digestion can be useful in the objective evaluation of the activity and degree of severity of the ulcerous process as well as in the functional assessment of results of the treatments administered.

Investigation of the state of intraventricular proteolysis and membraneous digestion in the small intestine in 148 patients revealed that ulcer disease is accompanied by potentiation of the digestive processes in the stomach and their reduction in the small intestine. With appearance of complications of ulcer disease, the disorders of digestion deteriorated. This resulted in different manifestations of the enteral syndrome. It is concluded that examination of the intraventricular proteolysis and membraneous digestion may be used for objective evaluation of the activity and grade of severity of the ulcer process as well as for functional evaluation of treatment results.
