Effects of exercise training on left ventricular systolic and diastolic function after myocardial infarction: systematic review and meta-analysis.

Two RCTs examined the effect of exercise training on N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) with a total of 130 patients, and the pooled results showed a trend toward lower NT-proBNP with exercise training compared with the control group, but statistically insignificant, with an overall mean effect of MD = −180.10, 95% (−612.09, 251.89), I 2 = 96%, P = 0.41 ( Figure 7 ).
