NCT ID NCT07322926
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 101 patients with acute diverticulitis to see if routine blood tests could tell apart mild and severe cases. Researchers compared lab results like white blood cell count and C-reactive protein between the two groups. The goal was to find simple markers that help doctors decide who needs more aggressive treatment.
