1 Evidence of Nitric Oxide Produced by the Internal Mammary Artery Graft in Venous Drainage of the Recipient Coronary Artery  Ferenc I. Tarr, MD, PhD, Mária Sasvári, MD, Márton Tarr, MD, Rozália Rácz, MD  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 80, Issue 5, Pages (November 2005) DOI: /j.athoracsur Copyright © 2005 The Society of Thoracic Surgeons Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 Stable metabolite (nitrite) levels of nitric oxide in the anterior interventricular vein before (AIV1) and after (AIV2) left internal mammary artery (LIMA) to left anterior descending artery anastomosis completion, in the LIMA free flow (LIMA) and in the subclavian vein. The level of AIV2 is significantly greater than that of AIV1 (p < 0.001).

3 Fig 2 Nitrite levels in the venous drainage of the left internal mammary artery (LIMA) grafted recipient vessel after anastomosis completion (anterior interventricular vein [AIV2]) in comparison with the nitrite concentration of the IMA free flow. Coefficient of correlation r = 0.901; p < Circles represent pairs of LIMA free flow and of AIV2 samples. Solid line represents positive correlation between the samples.
