Attenuated progression of coronary artery disease after 6 years of multifactorial risk intervention role of physical exercise

It was the aim of this study to assess the long-term effects of physical exercise and low-fat diet on the progression of coronary artery disease. At the beginning of the study, 113 male patients with coronary artery disease were randomized to an intervention group (n=56) or a control group (n=57); 9...

Zusammenfassung:It was the aim of this study to assess the long-term effects of physical exercise and low-fat diet on the progression of coronary artery disease. At the beginning of the study, 113 male patients with coronary artery disease were randomized to an intervention group (n=56) or a control group (n=57); 90 patients (80%) could be reevaluated after 6 years. Patients in the intervention group (n=40) showed a reduction in total serum cholesterol (6.03+/-1.03 versus 5.67+/-1.01 mmol/L; P
