Figure 2 Multivariable Predictors of Survival Following CTO PCI
Multivariable adjusted predictors of long-term survival in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention of chronic total occlusions in left anterior descending, left circumflex, and right coronary artery. CABG = coronary artery bypass graft; CAD = coronary artery disease; other abbreviations as in Figure 1.
