Core Tip This retrospective study of 33508 Finnish survey participants aimed to identify and investigate non-drug factors associated with the risk of major gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB) in the general population in Finland. Aside from established risk factors, our study identified unemployment, body mass index and gamma-glutamyl transferase enzyme were all associated with increased risk of major GIB. Systolic blood pressure and coffee consumption were associated with a decreased risk of major GIB.
