AIM: Colonic @entity548 often recurs, but the risk factors remain unclear. Our aim was to identify risk factors for recurrence in @entity1 with @entity548 . METHOD: Seventy-two hospitalized @entity1 who were diagnosed with @entity548 between 2004 and 2008 were analyzed. Rebleeding was considered as the main outcome measure, with the duration until recurrence identified from medical records. Potential risk factors for rebleeding, such as underlying pathologies, medication and smoking and drinking habits, were investigated from the medical records on initial admission. RESULTS: Of the 72 @entity1 , 19 had a @entity66 on the right, 16 on the left side and 37 on both sides of the colon. Recurrence was identified in 27 (38%) @entity1 at a median interval of 1535 days. The cumulative incidence of rebleeding at 6, 12 and 24 months was 15%, 20% and 33%. Multivariate analysis revealed nonsteroid anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) (hazard ratio ( @entity101 ), 2.57; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.89-7.46; P=0.08), antiplatelet drugs ( @entity101 , 2.39; 95% CI, 1.01-5.67; P=0.05) and @entity101 ( @entity101 , 4.16; 95% CI, 1.22-14.2; P=0.02) to be risk factors for rebleeding. CONCLUSION: @entity1 with @entity694 show high recurrence rates within a short period. Risk factors for recurrence have been identified as the use of NSAIDs or antiplatelet drugs and @entity101 .
