Trends in the incidence and etiology of acute pancreatitis from 2000 to 2016: A population-based study
Section snippets
Main text
Although AP hospitalizations are increasing in most US hospital-based studies, there is a dearth of population-based studies examining the incidence trend of AP [[1], [2], [3]]. Moreover, while AP etiology frequency (vary in different populations and eras, biliary and alcohol being most common), to the best of our knowledge no study reported changes over time in an encompassing US population-based cohort [4,5].
The Rochester Epidemiology Project (REP), incepted in 1966, compiles the health data
