The Evaluation of pancreozymin-Secretin Test

Abstract

1. Enzymes output for 40min.-postpancreozymin period and bicarbonate concentration or volume output for 60min.-postsecretin period seemed to be useful for evaluation of pancreatic function in pancreozymin-secretin test.
2. Tryptic activity of aspirated duodenal juicewas the best parameter compared with other parameters.
3. The close correlation (r-0.7) between the enzyme output and the protein output of the juice was observed.
4. It was suggested from our cases that the upper gastrointestinal disorder or pancreatic lymph congestion might cause pancreatic disorders.
5. Double pancreozymin response test was employed. This result revealed that the enzyme output of the second pancreozymin stimulation wasa better parameter.
