“…We performed a meta‐analysis of 30 RCTs. 984 , 985 , 986 , 987 , 988 , 989 , 990 , 991 , 992 , 993 , 994 , 995 , 996 , 997 , 998 , 999 , 1000 , 1001 , 1002 , 1003 , 1004 , 1005 , 1006 , 1007 , 1008 , 1009 , 1010 , 1011 , 1012 , 1013 The estimated values of desirable anticipated effects were as follows: gastrointestinal bleeding yielded a RD of 44 fewer per 1,000 (95%CI: 54 fewer to 28 fewer) (14 RCTs, n = 4,884); mortality yielded an RD of 3 more per 1,000 (95%CI: 22 fewer to 33 more) (8 RCTs, n = 4,314). Meanwhile, the estimated values of the undesirable anticipated effects were as follows: pneumonia yielded an RD of 4 more per 1,000 (95%CI: 16 fewer to 28 more) (8 RCTs, n = 4,286); Clostridioides infection yielded an RD of 4 fewer per 1,000 (95%CI: 9 fewer to 5 more) (3 RCTs, n = 3,607); various serious adverse effects yielded an RD of 5 more per 1,000 (95%CI: 6 fewer to 20 more) (7 RCTs, n = 4,143).…”
