5 Fig 4 Kaplan-Meier curves demonstrating differences in mortality in patients with radiation-associated cardiac disease who underwent cardiac surgery, separated based on median aorto-mitral curtain thickness.

6 Fig 5 Hazard ratios for mortality in patients with radiation-associated cardiac disease plotted against aorto-mitral curtain thickness divided into 10 equal deciles. All comparisons were derived with Cox proportional hazards regression model using the first decile as reference.

7 Fig 6 Kaplan-Meier curves demonstrating differences in mortality in patients with radiation-associated cardiac disease, divided into four subgroups, based on median EuroSCORE and aorto-mitral curtain thickness.
