Top Medical Research Studies

We investigated how benfotiamine might impact stomach ulcers in male rats. The study involved dividing 30 rats into groups receiving different treatments, including benfotiamine at varying doses, following the induction of ulcers using indomethacin.

Our results showed that benfotiamine notably decreased gastric damage and lowered inflammation markers. Specifically, doses of 100 and 200 mg/kg appeared to enhance antioxidant levels and reduce tissue damage.

However, while these findings are promising, more research is needed to fully understand the mechanisms at play and assess benfotiamine's potential for human treatment.

ImproWin® aids gastric ulcer healing
We aimed to determine if ImproWin®, a feed additive, could help improve gastric ulcers in Standardbred and Coldblooded trotting racehorses. By conducting a randomized, double-blinded study, we assessed horses' ulcers before and after three weeks of treatment.

Our results showed a significant reduction in ulcer scores for horses treated with ImproWin®, with 78% classified as responders compared to only 54.8% in the placebo group. This indicates that ImproWin® may be beneficial for aiding the healing of gastric ulcers in affected racehorses.

Folic acid has mixed effects
We examined how different doses of folic acid supplementation affect ulcer formation in rats. Male Wistar rats were treated with varying doses for 21 days while gastric ulcers were induced with indomethacin.

We found that a dose of 2 mg/kg significantly reduced gastric lesions, while a higher dose of 3 mg/kg unexpectedly worsened damage. Our results suggest that low doses of folic acid can be protective for the stomach, but high doses could pose risks.

Thus, it appears that moderation is key when considering folic acid for ulcer treatment.

Eliminated mouth ulcers

I can effectively absorb B vitamins now. I used to take several B vitamins daily, which was inconvenient, but switching to Vitamin B-50 has been a game-changer. I take one tablet in the morning and evening, and since then, I've stopped getting mouth ulcers. I love taking it in the morning for an energy boost, and despite its size, it’s not an issue. The excellent cost performance means I will continue buying it.

I suffer from mouth ulcers and previously struggled to find relief until I tried this vitamin B. Within a few days of usage, my large ulcer healed quickly. While I'm not depressed, I do feel more mentally stable since taking it.

We analyzed the potential connection between folic acid supplementation and gastric ulcers using data from the UK Biobank and advanced statistical methods.

Our findings suggest that folic acid may significantly lower the risk of developing gastric ulcers.

Various robust models reinforced this result, showing consistent outcomes across different analyses.

Ultimately, this research provides genetic evidence supporting the idea that receiving folic acid therapy can be beneficial in reducing gastric ulcer risk.

Effective ulcer treatment in diabetes
We explored the effects of Luffa acutangula extracts on gastric ulcers in diabetic rats. By inducing non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) and then creating gastric ulcers, we evaluated the extracts' potential for healing.

The results showed that the methanolic extract significantly boosted healing, improving protective mucosal glycoproteins and antioxidant levels. This was better than the aqueous extract and standard treatments.

Overall, Luffa acutangula appears to offer promising support for treating gastric ulcers in diabetes, highlighting its dual action in managing both conditions.

Effective treatment for oral ulcers
We explored the effectiveness of mecobalamin and vitamin E in treating recurrent oral ulcers. In a study with 58 patients, those receiving both treatments showed significantly improved healing times and reduced symptoms compared to the control group. They experienced longer periods without ulcer flare-ups and better quality of life scores. Both groups felt pain relief, but the test group had more noticeable benefits. This finding suggests that mecobalamin and vitamin E can be a valuable addition to ulcer treatment, enhancing both comfort and recovery.

Nicotinamide shows ulcer protection
We explored the effects of nicotinamide on gastric ulcers caused by indomethacin in a laboratory setting. Using a well-established model, we compared the treatment of nicotinamide with sucralfate, a known antiulcer drug.

Our findings revealed that nicotinamide significantly reduced the severity of gastric lesions. It also helped restore vital biochemical parameters affected by the ulcer-inducing drug.

The protective effect of nicotinamide appears to stem from its ability to conserve gastric mucus and nitric oxide, improve gastric microvascular permeability, and exert antioxidant actions.
