Core Tip There is limited comprehensive data on mortality rates due to diverticular disease. This study aims to investigate the mortality trends of diverticular disease over a two-decade period through demographic and regional stratification. Overall mortality has decreased over two decades; however, females and non-Hispanic whites have higher mortality rates. The study also identifies states and regions showing higher mortality rates. The study suggests that further research is necessary to identify the factors contributing to demographic and regional disparities in mortality, thereby enhancing public health measures for vulnerable populations.
