Impact of South Asian Ethnicity on Long-Term Outcomes After Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting Surgery: A Large Population-Based Propensity Matched Study.

We performed a meta‐analysis using the random effects model, adding our crude nonadjusted data to the available literature (excluding Brister's study to prevent double counting since it was a center that was also included in our study) for 30‐day mortality data and found that the odds of mortality was higher being a SA compared to the GP (OR 1.36, 95% CI 0.92–2.04, P =0.13, [Figure S1] for early mortality); although this did not reach statistical significance, the directionality of the OR seems to be consistent with that of our matched cohort (Table 3 , 30‐day mortality) and that of Brister's study for the early period after CABG.
