Abstract
Based on a retrospective analysis of patients with LGIB, 46% of all patients have rebleeding, and the overall mortality rate is 13% within 5 years after hospitalization. Besides age â¥65 years, use of antithrombotic drugs increases the risk of bleeding recurrence and mortality among patients with LGIB.
