A study of 100 patients was done with the purpose of determining the prognostic value of the protein composition and coefficient of defense (ratio of mucus protein composition and coefficient of defense (ratio of mucus protein concentration to proteolytic activity) of the gastric juice and possibility of their use for evaluation of the severity of duodenal ulcer. Results indicate that changes of the protein composition and coefficient of defense of the gastric juice have a prognostic significance for determination of the severity of duodenal ulcer and appearance of complications. Discriminant functions allow to predict the further course of duodenal ulcer with a 70-80% precision.
