Fernandez'y (Arch, fr Verdauungskr., Bd. 42, No. 1-2) in histamine we not only have an excellent stimulant, with the help of which we obtain pure juice for studying the secretory function of the stomach, but it is also an excellent means for recognizing achilia, namely, the absence of its action: indicates a serious organic lesion, for example, stomach cancer and gastritis in malignant anemia.
