(A) Mechanical properties comparison of great saphenous vein, as a gold standard, and grafts in clinical trials. Mechanical properties identified include internal diameter (ID), wall thickness (WT), longitudinal tensile strength (LTS), circumferential tensile strength (CTS), suture retention strength (SRS), burst pressure (BP), and dynamic compliance (DC). Chart generated from the Python library developed by StatsBomb/Anmol Durgapal (accessed on 29 May 2022) [29]. (B) Mechanical properties comparison of great saphenous vein, as a gold standard, internal mammary artery, and each graft made in clinical trials. Circumferential tensile strength (CTS), longitudinal tensile strength (LTS), suture retention strength (SRS), internal mammary artery (IMA), and great saphenous vein (GSV). Data are according to literature reports of a representative data set. Additional information regarding descriptive analysis can be found in Table S1. Graph generated with GraphPad Prism (accessed on 29 May 2022).
