Figure 1 A, Freedom from complete occlusion of the RA graft stratified by diabetic status. The log-rank P value is testing for statistical significance of the RA graft patency curve between diabetic and nondiabetic patients. B, Freedom from complete occlusion of the SV stratified by diabetic status. The log-rank P value is testing for statistical significance of the SV graft patency curve between diabetic and nondiabetic patients. DM, Diabetes mellitus.

Figure 2 MACE-free survival stratified by diabetic status. The log-rank P value is testing for statistical significance of the MACE curves between diabetic and nondiabetic patients. MACE is defined as cardiac death, late MI, or repeat reintervention of PCI or CABG. DM, Diabetes mellitus.
