95% CIs obtained by bootstrapping (500 iterations).

a

As in Table 3.

b

CIs were too unstable to be interpretable for respiratory causes of death due to small numbers.

eCIF, excess CIF; the absolute difference in the CIF between patients with non-variceal bleeding and age, sex, year, and general practice matched controls without non-variceal bleeding; GI, gastrointestinal.
