What is recorded here?

Reported a human self-inoculation experiment in which cultured pyloric Campylobacter colonized previously normal gastric mucosa and was followed by acute illness and histologically verified gastritis.

Source-linked catalogue note. A detailed explanatory guide has not yet been prepared for this entry.

Scientific scope

The record is the exact four-author 1985 report and one-volunteer experiment. It supports bacterial causation of acute gastritis under the reported conditions, not that every ulcer has one cause or that all Koch postulates for chronic ulcer disease were established.
