Lansoprazole Intravenous 30 mg Specified Drug-use Survey [Hemostatic Effect/Rebleeding Rate]
Gastric UlcerDuodenal Ulcer2 moreThe purpose of this survey is to evaluate the safety (i.e., frequency of adverse events) and efficacy (i.e., hemostatic effect, rate of rebleeding after confirmation of hemostasis) of administration of lansoprazole intravenous 30 milligram (mg) (Takepron Intravenous 30 mg) to a large number of patients in daily medical practice.

Pharmacogenetics of Gastrointestinal Bleeding
Gastrointestinal HemorrhageStomach Ulcer1 moreGastrointestinal bleeding is a severe adverse effect occurring in subjects secondary to the use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). The enzyme CYP2C9 is responsible for the elimination of several NSAIDs. This protein is inactive in 12% of the subjects because of genetic mutations. We hypothesized that individuals carrying such mutations should be at higher risk of gastrointestinal bleeding since they display decreased NSAIDs elimination.

Influence of CYP2C19 Polymorphism on PK/PD of Omeprazole
Stomach UlcerA clinical trial to investigate the influence of CYP2C19 polymorphism on pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic characteristics of omeprazole in healthy Korean volunteers

H. Pylori Testing for Patients With Non-specific Upper Abdominal Pain in the Emergency Department...
GastritisPeptic Ulcer2 moreThis pilot study aims to estimate the prevalence of Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) colonization in patients presenting with non-specific abdominal pain (NSAP) in an urban academic emergency department (ED) located in Washington, DC.

Rabeprazole Specific Clinical Experience Investigation for the Long-term Combination Therapy With...
Gastric UlcerDuodenal UlcerTo investigate the safety and efficacy of long-term combination therapy with rabeprazole and low-dose aspirin.

Systematic Assessment and Targeted Improvement of Services Following Yearlong Surgical Outcomes...
Heart AttackCardiac Arrest14 moreBased on limited published epidemiological data, up to an alarming 1 in 50 surgical inpatients die within 30 postoperative days. Based on our own data from the B-Unaware (NCT00281489) and BAG-RECALL (NCT00682825) clinical trials, 30-day postoperative mortality among high-risk surgical patients is comparable to this at Barnes-Jewish Hospital, and 1-year mortality among high-risk surgical patients may be as high as 10%. Short- and intermediate-term postoperative mortality is therefore a pressing public health concern. Similarly, postoperative major morbidity - including delirium, stroke, myocardial infarction, atrial fibrillation, blood clots, renal dysfunction, wound infection, pneumonia, respiratory failure, loss of functionality, and chronic pain - occurs commonly and affects a substantial proportion of surgical patients, critically ill patients and patients undergoing procedures for chronic pain. Many factors associate strongly and independently with postoperative mortality and major morbidity: patient age, functional status, comorbid medical conditions, and duration and invasiveness of surgery, among others. It is a strategic priority to identify pre- and intraoperative risk factors that are subject to modification.

Drug Use Surveillance of Takecab for "Supplement to Helicobacter Pylori Eradication"
Gastric/Duodenal UlcerGastric MALT Lymphoma3 moreThe purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy on participants receiving first-line eradication and second-line eradication including vonoprazan (Takecab) tablets (triple therapy) in the routine clinical setting.

Cytokine Gene Polymorphisms in Gastric Diseases
Gastric UlcerDuodenal Ulcer1 moreRecently, cytokine polymorphisms are considered to play an important role in the pathogenesis of peptic ulcer and gastric cancer. We intended to clarify the association between polymorphisms of pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines, and the susceptibility to gastric cancer, gastric ulcer and duodenal ulcer in Japan, and to detect the individuals who have higher risks for gastrointestinal disease development.

Drug Use Surveillance of Vonoprazan for "Gastric Ulcer, Duodenal Ulcer, and Reflux Esophagitis"...
Gastric UlcerDuodenal Ulcer1 moreThe purpose of this survey is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of vonoprazan tablets in patients with gastric ulcer, duodenal ulcer, and reflux esophagitis in the routine clinical setting.
