The usual examination of the gastric contents after a test breakfast, and not only after its single extraction, but even with the more perfect fractional method, gives a total picture of the motility and secretory activity of the stomach, from which it is difficult to distinguish the influence of each of these factors separately. The curves obtained by the fractional method of investigation are not "secretion curves", but only "acidity curves" (Katsch and Kalk), the course of which depends on the intensity of secretion, on the speed of emptying the stomach, on the course of the intake of duodeni contents, on swallowing saliva.
