FIG 3. Mean FS of the device surface with VSMCs. The mean FS for each of the three devices studied are compared at three initial VSMC concentrations. The calculated mean FS is presented in the upper left margin above its corresponding bar. Error bars indicate a single standard deviation above and below the mean (n = 8). CINC-250 indicates CINCs with a helical pitch of 250 µm; NiT-50, nitinol coils with a helical pitch of 50 µm.

A, Initial VSMC concentration of 2.6 x 10⁶ cells per milliliter.

B, Initial VSMC concentration of 2.6 x 10⁵ cells per milliliter.

C, Initial VSMC concentration of 2.6 x 10⁴ cells per milliliter.
