From: Blood flow modeling reveals improved collateral artery performance during the regenerative period in mammalian hearts

Extended Data Fig. 5

a–e, Adult configurations: 6 collaterals, 20 μm (a); 6 collaterals, 28 μm (b); 12 collaterals, 20 μm (c); 3 collaterals, 40 μm (d); 9 collaterals, 40 μm (e). f, Pressure increases for each collateral in c with and without a 99% stenosis. g–j, Neonatal configurations: 6 collaterals, 20 μm (g); 12 collaterals, 10 μm (h); 12 collaterals, 20 μm (i); 1 collateral, 40 μm (j). Pie chart indicates number of collaterals per connection type.
