The effect of race and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease on long-term survival after coronary artery bypass grafting
Efird, Jimmy T.; O'Neal, Wesley T.; Anderson, Curtis A.; O'Neal, Jason B.; Kindell, Linda C.; Ferguson, T. Bruce; Chitwood, W. Randolph; Kypson, Alan P. (2013-04)Background: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a known predictor of decreased long-term survival after coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG). Differences in survival by race have not been examined. Methods: ... -
