Table IV.
Adjusted Cox regression models for 3-year re-intervention after infrainguinal bypass. Race/ethnicity was included in all models, with non-Hispanic White as the reference group. For prosthetic conduit, vein conduit was used as the reference group. The second column shows the unadjusted hazard ratio (uHR) for each variable with respect to re-intervention. Subsequent columns present the adjusted HRs (aHR) for covariates included in each model. 95% confidence intervals are reported after HRs.
