Figure 1 Change in Minnesota Living with Heart Failure quality-of-life scores from baseline to 12 weeks. Means (± SD) are shown in bold. At 12 weeks, patients in the tai chi group reported significantly better quality-of-life (lower scores) as compared with those in the usual care group (P = 0.001).

Figure 2 Change in 6-minute walk distance from baseline to 12 weeks. Means (± SD) are shown in bold. At 12 weeks, patients in the tai chi group performed significantly better as compared with those in the usual care group (P = 0.001). Imputation methods (last value carried forward) were used for missing 12-week data, affecting 1 patient in the control group.

Figure 3 Change in peak oxygen uptake from baseline to 12 weeks. Means (± SD) are shown in bold. At 12 weeks, there was no significant difference between the two groups (P = 0.08). Imputation methods (last value carried forward) were used for missing 12-week data, affecting 3 patients in the control group.
