Updated evidence on epidemiology, diagnosis, and treatment for colonic diverticular bleeding
DEN Open, Volume 6, Issue 1, April 2026.Abstract Since 2020, multiple large‐scale studies (CODE BLUE‐J) in Japan have accelerated the accumulation of evidence on colonic diverticular bleeding (CDB). This review summarizes the latest findings regarding CDB epidemiology and endoscopic hemostasis.

Pathophysiology of Colon Diverticulum
Korean Journal of Medicine, 2013 Although the pathogenesis of diverticulum remains unclear, traditionally it has been thought to result from structural abnormalities of the colonic wall, deficiencies of dietary fiber, or disordered intestinal motility. More recently, new pathophysiologic factors including inflammation, gut flora, neurotransmitters, visceral hypersensitivity, and ...

The role of mutation rate in a simple colonization model [PDF]
, 2004 We study the effect of mutations in a simple model of colonization, based on Montecarlo simulations. When the population colonizes the whole available habitat, a maximum population density is reached, which depends on the mutation rate. Depending on the values of other parameters, such as selection pressure, fecundity and mobility, there is an optimal ...

Spontaneous Hemoperitoneum Caused By a Diverticulum of the Sigmoid Colon
International Journal of Medical Sciences, 2011 The diverticulum of the sigmoid colon is relatively common in the gastrointestinal tract, with the majority of cases being asymptomatic. A non-traumatic hemoperitoneum secondary to colonic diverticulum is very rare.
