At the examination: the skin is dry, the heart rate is 90 beats/min, arterial pressure is 110/70 mm Hg. The study of gastric juice showed a decrease in its quantity and acidity. In the blood: hemoglobin - 100 g / 1, erythrocytes - 3,2x10¹2/1, color index - 1,1, antibodies to parietal cells of the stomach are detected. Questions: 4. What are the possible causes of this disease? 5. Describe the most likely mechanism of the patient's pathology.
