1 Role of transvalvular gradient in outcome from valve replacement for aortic stenosis 
Arjuna Weerasinghe, FRCS, PhD, Merangani Yusuf, FRCS, Thanos Athanasiou, PhD, Alan Wood, FRCS, Patrick Magee, FRCS, Rakesh Uppal, FRCS  The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  Volume 77, Issue 4, Pages (April 2004) DOI: /j.athoracsur

2 Fig 1 Scatterplot illustrating the association between age and TVG. The regression equation demonstrated, TVG = × Age (in years). (TVG = transvalvular gradient.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /j.athoracsur )

3 Fig 2 Kaplan-Meier curves comparing medium-term outcome in patients with TVG more than 100 mm Hg and those with TVG less than or equal to 100 mm Hg. Survival time was ± 1.5 months and ± 1.23 months, respectively (log rank value of 0.01 and p = 0.92). (TVG = transvalvular gradient.) The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /j.athoracsur )

4 Fig 3 Kaplan-Meier curves comparing medium-term outcome in patients receiving a valve size > 19 with those receiving a valve size = 19. Survival time was 42.6 ± 0.89 months and 36 ± 3.6 months, respectively (log rank value of 5.61 and p = 0.017). The Annals of Thoracic Surgery  , DOI: ( /j.athoracsur )
