what happens very quickly once a vein is in the arterial circulation is that that vein now develops atherosclerosis very fast in fact usually faster than an artery because it's under a high pressure
The evidence is convergent. Multiple independent sources reach the same conclusion, the underlying mechanism is well-characterized, and even the field's most cautious voices treat it as worth doing.

Every Sunday: the week’s new conflicts and verdict changes — and nothing else.

if you put a vein into the arterial circulation it accumulates atherosclerosis because it has has the ability to become atheroscleros because the endothelium is the same in an artery and a vein
venous grafts do arterialize not exactly the same way but they do get thicker because you know you are putting them into a pressured you know much higher pressure system so they do get a little bit thicker they don't like completely turn into arteries but they do end up with you know atherosclerosis similarly like like a artery would
a vein breaks down way faster when I was in cardiology if you could get an artery and put in the arterial circulation then that would last longer in a cabbage in a coronary bypass graft you're nodding you're agreeing then a vein
when you take an artery or a vein out of out of the venous system and bypass it in cabbage it arterializes it actually gets thicker it starts having atherosclerosis
