Figure 1 The LE MANS Study Algorithm

The LE MANS algorithm is from Buszman et al. (24) but is based on new data. BMS = bare-metal stent(s); CABG = coronary artery bypass grafting; DES = drug-eluting stent(s); LMCA = left main coronary artery; PCI = percutaneous coronary intervention; STEMI = ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction.

Figure 2 Early and Long-Term Results for the Whole Study Group

(A) Mortality and major adverse cardiovascular and cerebral events (MACCE) at 30-day and long-term follow-up. (B) The incidence of MACCE, myocardial infarction (MI), stroke, and target lesion revascularization (TLR) at long-term follow-up.
