Summary A good but not absolute correlation between the presence of the gastric parietal cell antibody and impairment of gastric secretion was observed in the relatives of patients with pernicious anaemia. By analogy, although the majority of relatives without the antibody secreted normal amounts of acid and of intrinsic factor nearly one‐fifth secreted unexpectedly small amounts of intrinsic factor.
