Serum pepsinogen values in Japanese junior high school students with reference to Helicobacter pylori infection.

CONCLUSIONS: The PG I and PG II values were higher, and the PG I/II was lower in H. pylori infected students than in non-infected students. In H. pylori non-infected students, males showed higher PG I and PG II values than females. The distributions of PG values in junior high school students differed from those in adults.
