Table 3 Therapeutic efficacy of small-volume and large-volume epinephrine, and hemoclips in reducing recurrent bleeding (95% CI)

Recurrent bleeding rate (%)	RRR (%)	ARR (%)	NNT
Small-volume vs large-volume epinephrine	46.6 (-11.2-75.0)	14.0 (-2.6-30.3)	8.0 (37.7-3.3)
Small-volume epinephrine vs hemoclips	86.7 (51.7-96.5)	26.0 (12.3-40.4)	4.0 (2.5-8.1)
Large-volume epinephrine vs hemoclips	75.0 (9.0-23.0)	12.0 (0.2-25.0)	9.0 (4.0-476.0)

RRR: Relative risk reduction; ARR: Absolute risk reduction; NNT: Number needs to treat.
