The authors examined the morbidity rate of mycotic diseases of stomach and esophagus. There were 746 biopsian and abrasian cytologic samplings carried out in a year and 12.3% of the cases turned out to be positive. Comparing the two sampling patterns the abrasian cytology has proved to be more effective. The prevalence of candidiasis was found to be higher in case of malignant diseases. In states accompanied by low acid values (as in case of patients under H2-receptor blocking--treatment) mycotic infection proved to be more frequent, too.

D006635	Histamine H2 Antagonists	Drugs that selectively bind to but do not activate histamine H2 receptors, thereby blocking the actions of histamine. Their clinically most important action is the inhibition of acid secretion in the treatment of gastrointestinal ulcers. Smooth muscle may also be affected. Some drugs in this class have strong effects in the central nervous system, but these actions are not well understood.
