Figure Association between initiation of each antihyperlipidemic agent (exposed versus unexposed) and hospitalization for gastrointestinal bleeding in chronic warfarin users. Each diamond represents the odds ratio of interest, and the vertical line represents the 95% confidence interval. The data are presented on the log scale. All analyses are adjusted for age, sex, race, state, prior gastrointestinal bleed, diabetes, and number of prior warfarin prescriptions filled on the index date.
