Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Esomeprazole plus aspirin compared with esomeprazole alone for the treatment of aspirin-related peptic ulcers.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The aims of this study are to compare esomeprazole plus aspirin with esomeprazole alone in the treatment of aspirin-related ulcers.

Patients with aspirin-related peptic ulcers are randomized to receive esomeprazole (40 mg/day) plus aspirin (100 mg/day) or esomeprazole (40 mg/day) alone for 8 weeks. Follow-up endoscopy was carried out at the end of the eighth week. The primary end point was the healing of peptic ulcers.
