Randomized trials evaluating multiarterial grafting (MAG) vs single arterial grafting (SAG) during coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) have not demonstrated a long-term survival benefit, whereas conventional retrospective studies have consistently reported improved survival with MAG. Whether this discordance reflects true treatment effect heterogeneity or bias from unmeasured confounding in observational analysis remains unclear.
