Factors associated with GI bleeding

OR 95% CI p
Dyslipidemia 0.50 0.27–0.93 0.03
Previous peptic ulcer 6.59 4.11–10.57 <0.001
Baseline NIHSS score (per 1 score) 1.05 1.02–1.08 0.002
Prestroke treatment with steroid 2.49 0.96–6.44 0.06

The multivariate model included age, prestroke modified Rankin Scale score, dyslipidemia, atrial fibrillation, previous peptic ulcer, cardioembolic stroke, baseline NIHSS score, prestroke steroid, prestroke statin, and poststroke antiplatelet. Baseline NIHSS was assessed on admission.
