Twenty-one patients with documented coronary artery disease were tested at baseline by exercise tolerance testing, and assigned to either stress reduction using the Transcendental Meditation (TM) program or to a wait-list control, After 8 months, the TM group had a 14.7% increase in exercise tolerance, an 11.7% increase in maximal workload, an 18% delay in onset of ST-segment depression, and significant reductions in rate-pressure product at 3 and 6 minutes, and at maximal exercise compared with the control group.
21名有冠状动脉疾病记录的患者在基线时通过运动耐量测试进行了检测，并被分配到使用超觉静坐（TM）计划进行减压组或等待名单对照组。8个月后，与对照组相比，TM组的运动耐量提高了14.7%，最大工作量增加了11.7%，ST段压低的发作延迟了18%，并且在3分钟、6分钟以及最大运动时的心率血压乘积显著降低。
