Figure 7 Biopsy score in patients with coronary vasculopathy in relation to the presence or absence of post-transplant ischemic injury/fibrosis. Patients with fibrosis have reduced cellular rejection score at one year (Y), mainly during 6 to 12 months of transplant (Y2). *p = 0.05; Y, fibrosis versus no fibrosis. **p = 0.006; Y2, fibrosis versus no fibrosis. Y1 = cellular rejection score during the first 6 months of transplant.
