gastrins and Acalculous-Cholecystitis

The therapeutic efficacy of tykveol was evaluated in 22 patients with chronic non-calculous cholecystitis and/or dyskinesia of the biliary tract (BT) concurrent with gallbladder deformity (GD). Supplementation of tykveol to the combined therapy in the patients with chronic non-calculous cholecystitis concurrent with GD was shown to exert a pronounced therapeutic effect. This caused positive changes in clinical symptoms and BT function, diminished the lithogenic propertes of bile. With the use of tykveol, recovery of neurohumoral regulation is an important factor that improves biliary tract function, as evidenced by decreased gastrin secretion.
