The aetiological factors at work in Nigerians with duodenal ulcer were examined. Stress and dietary factors were found to be major agents in the precipitation of exacerbations and recurrences of symptoms. Of the dietary agents, chillies and cassava preparations in the form of 'eba' and 'gari' are potent ulcerogenic food substances. Aspirin, alcohol and smoking also contribute to the worsening of the conditions but are not major factors.
对患有十二指肠溃疡的尼日利亚人的致病因素进行了研究。发现压力和饮食因素是症状加重和复发的主要诱因。在饮食因素中，辣椒以及“eba”和“gari”形式的木薯制品是强力的致溃疡食物物质。阿司匹林、酒精和吸烟也会导致病情恶化，但并非主要因素。
