Figure 1 Univariate predictors for (A) in-hospital and (B) late major adverse cardiac events (MACE). CHF = congestive heart failure; IABP = intra-aortic balloon pump; MI = myocardial infarction; PVD = peripheral vascular disease; USA = unstable angina.

Figure 2 Total and event-free survival for patients after percutaneous revascularization of saphenous vein grafts. Solid diamond = death; solid square = death, MI; solid triangle = death, MI, repeat CABG; solid circle = death, MI, any target vessel revascularization. CABG = coronary artery bypass graft surgery; MI = myocardial infarction.

Figure 3 Freedom from repeat target vessel revascularization (percutaneous and surgical revascularization) after saphenous vein graft intervention. Solid diamond = stent (n = 415); solid square = no stent (n = 614). p = 0.4.

Figure 4 Freedom from death, myocardial infarction, percutaneous revascularization or redo-bypass surgery after saphenous vein graft intervention. Solid diamond = stent (n = 415); solid square = no stent (n = 614). p = 0.2.
