Treatment of gastro-oesophageal reflux disease with rabeprazole in primary and secondary care: does Helicobacter pylori infection affect proton pump inhibitor effectiveness?

abstract：:Intragastric pH monitoring has shown that the distribution of acidity within the stomach is not homogeneous. Not only is it affected by meals but it also has a circadian rhythm in which nocturnal pH falls to very acid levels in normal subjects. Although results of pH monitoring are highly reproducible within individua...
