Effectiveness of nonpharmacological secondary prevention of coronary heart disease
Open accessAbstract
AIM: To summarize the current evidence with regard to the effectiveness of nonpharmacological secondary prevention strategies of coronary heart disease (CHD) and to investigate the comparative effectiveness of interventions of different categories, specific intervention components and the effectiveness in patient subgroups. METHODS: A structured search of databases and manual search were conducted. Clinical trials and meta-analyses published between January 2003 and September 2008 were included if they targeted adults with CHD, had a follow-up of at least 12 months, and reported mortality, cardiac events or quality of life. Two researchers assessed eligibility and methodological quality, in which appropriate, pooled effect estimates were calculated and tested in sensitivity analyses. RESULTS: Of 4798 publications 43 met the inclusion criteria. Overall study quality was satisfactory, but only about half of the studies reported mortality. Follow-up duration varied between 12 and 120 months. Despite substantial heterogeneity, there was strong evidence of intervention effectiveness overall. The evidence for exercise and multimodal interventions was more conclusive for reducing mortality, whereas psychosocial interventions seemed to be more effective in improving the quality of life. Rigorous studies investigating dietary and smoking cessation interventions, specific intervention components and important patient subgroups, were scarce. CONCLUSION: Nonpharmacological secondary prevention is safe and effective, with exercise and multimodal interventions reducing mortality most substantially. There is a lack of studies concerning dietary and smoking cessation interventions. In addition, intervention effectiveness in patient subgroups and of intervention components could not be evaluated conclusively. Future research should investigate these issues in rigorous studies with appropriate follow-up duration to improve the current poor risk factor control of CHD patients.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
