Figure 1: Relationship between cardiac surgeon years in practice and EMR on isolated CABG
Histogram of years in practice for cardiac surgeons who performed isolated coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) surgery between 2014-2016 in New York and 2015-2016 in California (Panel A). The relationship between normalized expected mortality rate (EMR) and years in practice is visualized using Loess regression (Panel B). Shaded regions on Panel B represent a 95% confidence interval.
