Multivariate logistic regression model for predictors of mortality in patients hospitalized with acute coronary syndrome and concomitant gastrointestinal bleeding. Performing gastrointestinal endoscopy was included along with other variables and comorbidities that can affect mortality. GIE: Gastrointestinal endoscopy; DM: Diabetes mellitus; CHF: Congestive heart failure.
