Pneumothorax following ERCP: report of four cases and review of the literature.

abstract：:Detecting plasma protein loss from the stomach is quite difficult by measuring fecal alpha1-AT clearance because alpha1-AT is rapidly destroyed in the gastric juice at values below pH 3. We examined protein loss from the stomach using fecal alpha1-AT clearance with lansoprazole, a proton pump inhibitor. A 38-year-old ...
