Excerpt

Rebleeding, which occurs in 10–15 % of patients with peptic ulcer bleeding (PUB) [1], is associated with a two- to fivefold mortality increase, depending on the presence of other risk factors [2]. Therefore, identification of the predictors of rebleeding seems meaningful in order to identify high-risk patients needing close observation and rapid treatment in case of the development of rebleeding. …
