Study summary

A single-center, prospective observational cohort study conducted at the University Hospital of Navarra. The primary objective is to expand knowledge of diverticular disease and its pathological variants, as well as the influence of the microbiota in our environment, both clinically and molecularly; to describe the clinical and pathological characteristics of patients with diverticulosis and acute diverticulitis; to analyze any differences in the microbiota; and to identify the risk factors and groups associated with diverticular disease in order to establish the best strategies for prevention and treatment.
