  1. ECG = electrocardiogram, CAD = coronary artery disease, HR = heart rate, SBP = systolic blood pressure, DBP = diastolic blood pressure, THR = 85% of age-predicted maximum heart rate, METs = metabolic equivalents, DTS = Duke Treadmill Score,
  2. † CAD defined by x-ray coronary angiography (see text).
