The H0 hypothesis of the study is there is no difference between pantoprazole and ranitidine in treating patients presented with dyspepsia to the emergency department.
The H1 hypothesis is there is difference between pantoprazole and ranitidine in treating patients presented with dyspepsia to the emergency department.
