Ambulatory acid probe test (esophageal pH monitoring):An acid monitor is put into your esophagus and connected to a small computer that you can wear on a belt or shoulder strap. It measures when stomach acid backs up into your esophagus and for how long. A newer technique called Bravo measu...
The doctor may snip off a small piece of the lining of the stomach for a biopsy. A biopsy is a close examination of the tissue in a laboratory. A biopsy can show whether there is an ongoing infection withH. pylori. It can also check to make sure an ulcer did not form because ofcan...
Large amounts of myoglobin can occlude the renal tubules in an acidic environment, causing damage to renal function and accelerating the development and progression of multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) [114]. Currently, there is lack of uniform diagnostic criteria for RM caused by HS. ...
