Results Ten percent of randomized patients had subclinical myocardial ischemia at
screening and completed the study without incident. There was no baseline difference
among 72 patients who completed follow-up (36 in the lifestyle intervention group and 36 in
the control group). The intervention increased peak V [Combining Dot Above] O 2 (2.8±0.7
ml/kg per minute versus− 0.3±0.9 ml/kg per minute; P= 0.004). There was small weight loss
(− 1.8±4.2 kg versus 0.7±3.7 kg; P= 0.02) but no change in BP or lipids. Diastolic function …
