Acid perfusion test: does it have a role in the assessment of non cardiac chest pain?

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Chronic pancreatitis is a progressive inflammatory disorder of the pancreas characterised by permanent destruction of acinar cells. Mutations in the chymotrypsinogen C (CTRC) gene have been linked to the development of chronic pancreatitis. The aim of the present study was to explore whether CTRC mutants indu...
