Key Words Peptic ulcer; Weekly pattern; Chronology; Epidemiology
Core Tip This population-based study used a population-based dataset in Taiwan to investigate the variations in peptic ulcer (PU) incidence by day of the week within subgroups defined by age. We identified 7204 subjects ≥18 years old with an emergency room (ER) admission claim for the treatment of PU, resulting in a total of 9234 ER visits for PU between 2009 and 2011. There is a higher incidence of PU onset on weekends than on weekdays for the total and working population. Furthermore, limiting the PU ER admissions to only those treated for PU with hemorrhage or perforation, Sundays and holidays had higher mean ER admissions than other days.
