Tai Chi as a mind-body exercise modulates endothelial function in coronary artery disease: A randomized clinical trial
Tai Chi, as a mind-body exercise, may improve endothelial function in patients with CAD, even when serum lipid levels remain unchanged, providing benefits comparable to those of aerobic exercise (AE) despite different effects on high-density lipoprotein (HDL). This trial has been registered on ClinicalTrials.gov (registration number: NCT03936504).
