Five-Year Outcomes after Off-Pump or On-Pump Coronary-Artery Bypass Grafting.
BACKGROUND We previously reported that there was no significant difference at 30 days or at 1 year in the rate of the composite outcome of death, stroke, myocardial infarction, or renal failure between patients who underwent coronary-artery bypass ...

Total arterial revascularization with composite skeletonized gastroepiploic artery graft in off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting [PDF]
BackgroundTotal arterial revascularization in coronary artery bypass grafting has recently become of great interest to many surgeons. At the same time, off-pump coronary bypass grafting has also become a popular procedure because of its low morbidity and

Generalizing causal inferences from individuals in randomized trials to all trial-eligible individuals [PDF]
We consider methods for causal inference in randomized trials nested within cohorts of trial-eligible individuals, including those who are not randomized. We show how baseline covariate data from the entire cohort, and treatment and outcome data only from randomized individuals, can be used to identify potential (counterfactual) outcome means and ...

Miniaturized Devices for On‐the‐Spot Generation of Small‐Diameter Vascular Grafts
An intracorporeal extrusion device is developed for on‐the‐spot generation of vascular grafts with tunable diameters spanning from 1 to 6 mm. The device uses biomimetic polymers and light, to promptly obtaining biocompatible and high‐burst pressure‐resistant grafts.
