Twenty-four-hour pH measurements in morbid obesity: effects of massive overweight, weight loss and gastric distension.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Most patients with severe upper dyspepsia are treated empirically with ulcer drugs. Drug-induced dyspepsia might therefore be reflected in the sequencing of ulcer drugs relative to other medications. Our aim was to screen a large population-base prescription database for evidence of drug-induced dyspepsia. M...
