dc.description.abstractBackground: Acid peptic disease is a common morbidity is India. We aim to find the present dynamics of age, sex and causative factors in our semiurban setup in western Uttar-Pradesh. Methods: a prospective study was done to include patients with acid peptic like symptoms presenting between January 2016 to December 2017. Upper GI endoscopy was done in patients with severe and recurrent symptoms. Results: In our study, out of 488 patients, 24 presented with perforated ulcers while 255 patients underwent upper GI endoscopy. 42 patients had normal mucosa on endoscopy. Highest incidence was seen in the age group of 31-40 years.68.86% of the patients had some sort of tobacco or alcohol intake. Conclusion: Peptic ulcer disease is still associated with considerable morbidity even in this era of proton pump inhibitors and H2 receptor blockers available as OTC products. The highest incidence was in the age group of 31-40 years. Lifestyle factors like smoking, alcohol intake, spicy, oily and salty food intake and tobacco chewing are present in majority of patients. Incidence of the disease in females is seen to be increasing.en_US
