Summary of the meta-analysis and forest plot for all indications. Forest plot of treatment effects on all-cause mortality and net clinical benefit (NCB). The horizontal error bars show the 95% confidence interval (CI) of each relative risk (RR) based on the random-effect model. The square represents the RR. An RR of < 1 favors the experimental group, an RR = 1 indicates no difference in treatment effects, and an RR of > 1 indicates a harmful effect of the control group. AF = Atrial fibrillation, K = number of studies for each indication, MB = Major bleeding, N = Total number of the included patients, VTE = Venous thromboembolism.
