Changing patterns of upper gastrointestinal bleeding over 23 years in Turkey.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/
aimsThis study aimed to compare the causes of nonvariceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding (NVUGB), demographics, risk factors, and outcomes of patients during two periods between 1993 and 2016 in a tertiary health-care center in Turkey. MATERIALS AND
methodsWe compared the causes of NVUGB and clinical outcomes in 421 patients hospitalized between January 1993 and December 1995 with those of 231 patients with NVUGB hospitalized between January 2015 and September 2016. We also compared epidemiological characteristics, risk factors, and the rates of endoscopic hemostatic procedures.
resultsWe observed significant increases in patients' mean age, in the percentage of patients with comorbid conditions, and in the percentage of patients who received direct-acting oral anticoagulants before bleeding. We also observed a statistically nonsignificant increase in the diagnoses of gastric ulcer, along with a significant concordant decrease in diagnoses of duodenal ulcer as a cause of bleeding. The use of emergency surgical hemostasis decreased among cases of peptic ulcer bleeding. The overall rate of mortality from bleeding did not significantly change between the two periods.
conclusionOver the 23 years studied, the causes of NVUGB changed, probably because the population was increasingly elderly population and because of the use of anticoagulants and better therapeutic approaches to chronic duodenal ulcers. The use of emergency surgical hemostasis reduced, but mortality rate did not significantly change between the two specific periods.
