ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Sepsis-related mortality in middle-aged and older pancreatic cancer patients constitutes a significant public health issue. This study seeks to analyze trends in the age-adjusted mortality rate (AAMR) for sepsis-related fatalities among these patients in the United States from 1999 to 2023, employing data from the most recent CDC WONDER database. The temporal patterns revealed from this analysis are anticipated to guide subsequent research and public health initiatives.

Methods
