Of perhaps even greater significance is the recent demonstration that the same type of erosive lesion may be produced by feeding cinchophen, which will cause not only superficial ulcers but the severer types of gastric ulceration encountered in man, including deep penetration and perforation.2 These cinchophen gastric ulcers differ only in degree from ulcers produced by a deficient diet alone, and they may also be prevented or modified by a dietary factor.
