“After ingestion of alcohol , the volume of gastric juice in response to pentagastrin stimulation was reduced by 24.6%, as compared with the control period.”
“ Alcohol also significantly (-28%) inhibited the secretion of 6-keto-PGF1 alpha in the period following the administration of pentagastrin.”
“Ingestion of alcohol led to a significant reduction in the concentration of prostaglandin E2 (-42.7%) after stimulation with pentagastrin.”
