TIDBITS® SAYS
I TOLD YOU SO
by Janet Spencer Come along with Tidbits as we look at famous cases of people ahead of their time who were eventually entitled to say, “I told you so!” ULCERS • In the 1980s, Barry Marshall was a doctor in Australia who was concerned because about 10% of adults suffered from stomach ulcers. At the time, doctors thought ulcers were caused by stress, smoking, and poor eating habits. But Dr. Marshall suspected ulcers were caused by a bacteria called H. pylori. • The problem was that he couldn’t infect any lab animals with H. pylori, not knowing at the time that this strain of bacteria infects only primates. • Papers he wrote were roundly ridiculed by gastroenterologists. Unable to experiment on animals, and prohibited from experimenting on people, he did what he had to do: he isolated a culture of H. pylori from a patient who had an ulcer, mixed it with broth, and drank it. Within days he developed a stomach ulcer. When the ulcer was confirmed, he cured himself with antibiotics. • From there, he proved that every person who had a stomach ulcer also had H. pylori. He later developed a breath test that can tell if a person is suffering from an H. pylori infection. In 2005 he was awarded a Nobel Prize for his efforts.
