Fig Freedom from graft-related events (stenosis, revision, occlusion, or amputation of the index leg) in subjects (n = 147) undergoing lower extremity bypass with an autogenous vein. Survival curves compare subjects with increased preoperative high-sensitivity C-reactive protein levels (CRP; >5 mg/L) with those who had levels within the reference range (≤5 mg/L) by the Kaplan-Meier method (P = .036).
