1 Gender differences in outcomes after surgical ablation of atrial fibrillation 
Sonia V. Shah, BS, Jane Kruse, BSN, Adin-Cristian Andrei, PhD, Zhi Li, MS, S. Chris Malaisrie, MD, Bradley P. Knight, MD, Rod S. Passman, MD, Patrick M. McCarthy, MD  The Journal of Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery  Volume 151, Issue 2, Pages e2 (February 2016) DOI: /j.jtcvs Copyright © 2016 The American Association for Thoracic Surgery Terms and Conditions

2 Figure 1 Kaplan-Meier survival estimates with pointwise 95% confidence intervals, in the (A) original groups and (B) propensity score–matched groups.

3 Figure 2 Standardized differences in baseline covariates in the PS model, before and after PS-matching. PS, Propensity score; Hx, history; CAD, coronary artery disease; MI, myocardial infarction; CABG, coronary artery bypass grafting; CV, cardiovascular; NYHA, New York Heart Association; preop, preoperative.

5 Figure E1 Kernel-smoothed histograms of the PS, before and after PS-matching, are shown below; they indicate excellent PS similarity by gender after PS-matching. Red and blue are associated with female and male gender, respectively. Values of the propensity scores are shown in yellow (for women) and green (for men). PS, Propensity score.
