BACKGROUND: @entity3013 ( @entity3013 ) is a core component of cardiac rehabilitation. We investigated the effects of @entity3013 on exercise capacity, muscle strength, and mobility in middle-aged and elderly @entity1 with @entity453 ( @entity453 ). METHODS: We searched for randomized controlled trials of @entity3013 versus usual care, or combined @entity3013 and @entity411 ( @entity411 ) versus @entity411 alone, and identified 440 trials in total from inception to January 2014. @entity1 who had @entity583 , coronary revascularization, @entity951 or @entity453 were included in the analysis. Those who had @entity712 , heart transplants with either cardiac resynchronization therapy or implantable defibrillators were excluded. RESULTS: Twenty-two trials totaling 1095 @entity1 were analyzed. We performed random-effects meta-analysis. In middle-aged @entity1 , @entity3013 increased lower extremity muscle strength [standardized mean difference (SMD): 0.65, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.35 to 0.95], upper extremity muscle strength (SMD: 0.73, 95% CI: 0.48 to 0.99) and peak @entity26 consumption (VO2) [weight mean difference (WMD): 0.92mL/kg/min, 95% CI: 0.12 to 1.72], but did not improve mobility compared with the control. In elderly @entity1 , @entity3013 increased lower extremity muscle strength (SMD: 0.63, 95% CI: 0.05 to 1.21), upper extremity muscle strength (SMD: 1.18, 95% CI: 0.56 to 1.80), and peak VO2 (WMD: 0.70mL/kg/min, 95% CI: 0.03 to 1.37), and improved mobility (SMD: 0.61, 95% CI: 0.21 to 1.01) compared with the control. CONCLUSIONS: @entity3013 could increase exercise capacity and muscle strength in middle-aged and elderly @entity1 , and mobility in elderly @entity1 , with @entity453 .
