Blumenthal,David S. Rendall,Nancy Houston Miller,Jerome L. Fleg,Kevin A. Schulman,Robert S. McKelvie,Faiez Zannad,Ileana L. Piña +17 more
TL;DR: Exercise training was associated with modest significant reductions for both all-cause mortality or hospitalization and cardiovascular mortality or heart failure hospitalization, and in key secondary clinical end points.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lawrence J. Appel,Catherine M. Champagne,David W. Harsha,Lawton S. Cooper,Eva Obarzanek,Patricia J. Elmer,Victor J. Stevens,William M. Vollmer,Pao-Hwa Lin,Laura P. Svetkey,Sarah W Stedman,Deborah Rohm Young +11 more

Sarwat I. Chaudhry,Jennifer A. Mattera,Jeptha P. Curtis,John A. Spertus,Jeph Herrin,Zhenqiu Lin,Christopher O. Phillips,Beth Hodshon,Lawton S. Cooper,Harlan M. Krumholz +9 more
TL;DR: Among patients recently hospitalized for heart failure, telemonitoring did not improve outcomes, and the results indicate the importance of a thorough, independent evaluation of disease-management strategies before their adoption.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In symptomatic patients with suspected CAD who required noninvasive testing, a strategy of initial CTA, as compared with functional testing, did not improve clinical outcomes over a median follow-up of 2 years.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trends in the incidence of myocardial infarction and in mortality due to coronary heart disease 1987 to 1994.
Wayne D. Rosamond,Lloyd E. Chambless,Aaron R. Folsom,Lawton S. Cooper,David E. Conwill,Limin X. Clegg,Chin Hua Wang,Gerardo Heiss +7 more
TL;DR: From 1987 to 1994, there were significant annual decreases in mortality from CHD, and the decline in mortality in the four communities the authors studied may be due largely to improvements in the treatment and secondary prevention of myocardial infarction.
