Fig 1 Cardiovascular medication use in a population of patients undergoing infrainguinal bypass procedures over 5 years. AP, Antiplatelet therapy; AC, anticoagulant therapy; BB, β-blocker use; ACEI, angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitor use; MV, multivitamin. Journal of Vascular Surgery , DOI: ( /j.jvs )

Fig 3 Kaplan-Meier plot compares survival in patients who were taking angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors with those who were not taking this medication. The difference was significant by log-rank test, at P = .05. Dashed line, Portion of plot where standard error is greater than 10%. Journal of Vascular Surgery , DOI: ( /j.jvs )

Fig 4 Kaplan-Meier plot compares survival in patients who were taking aspirin with those who were not taking this medication. A trend was observed, but the difference did not reach significance (P = .067, log rank test). Dashed line, Portion of plot where standard error is greater than 10%.
