title: [Hospital admissions for digestive diseases: 1995-2003 morbidity in a military hospital].
abstract: Digestive diseases are still currently one of the leading causes of illness. The study was conducted of those individuals admitted to hospital during the 1995-2003 period, whose main diagnosis at admission to hospital had been encoded according to the International Disease Classification as a digestive disease. The highest rate of admissions was in civilian males (the military hospital assures health care services for militaries and their families), due to duodenal ulcer and liver diseases. The superior level of education could be considered as a source of stress, and a risk factor for duodenal ulcer (odd ratio = 1.058). Key
