1 Left internal thoracic artery−radial artery composite grafts as the technique of choice for myocardial revascularization in elderly patients: a prospective randomized evaluation  Claudio Muneretto, MD, Gianluigi Bisleri, MD, Alberto Negri, MD, Jacopo Manfredi, MD, Enrico Carone, MD, Jeffrey A Morgan, MD, Marco Metra, MD, Livio Dei Cas, MD  The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery  Volume 127, Issue 1, Pages (January 2004) DOI: /j.jtcvs

2 Figure 1 Independent predictors of angina recurrence (Cox proportional hazard model, A) and graft occlusion (multivariate stepwise logistic regression, B) at multivariate analysis. CI, Confidence interval; OR, odds ratio. The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery  , DOI: ( /j.jtcvs )

3 Figure 2 Event-free (no recurrence of angina, myocardial infarction, PTCA reintervention, death) survival curves for patients undergoing total arterial myocardial revascularization (group 1) and conventional coronary surgery (group 2). The difference between the conventional and arterial groups was significant. The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery  , DOI: ( /j.jtcvs )
