Risk of Gastrointestinal Bleeding Associated with Oral Anticoagulants: Population Based Retrospective Cohort Study
BMJ 350:h1585, h1679, Chang, H.Y.,et al, 2015
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Although rates of gastrointestinal bleeding seem to be similar in this commercially insured sample of adults in the United States, we cannot rule out as much as a 50% increase in the risk of gastrointestinal bleeding with dabigatran compared with warfarin or a more than twofold higher risk of bleeding with rivaroxaban compared with warfarin.
