The association between index year, sex, and age, respectively, and acute surgical management analysed with multiple logistic regression models. Index year was divided into three 5-year time periods, comparing the latter two periods to the first (reference). The patients were divided into five different age strata analysing the first age category as reference. Mean age is shown for men and women as well as mean patient age of each time period. Models are adjusted for index year, sex, and age, respectively, as well as for concomitant disorders.
