When suitable, data were pooled using a random-effects meta-analysis model. <\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title><jats:p> Thirteen studies met the inclusion criteria. Tai Chi groups showed a large and significant improvement in aerobic endurance compared with both active and non-active control interventions (standard mean difference (SMD) 1.12; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.58\u20131.66; p &lt;0.001). Tai Chi groups also showed a significantly lower level of anxiety (SMD=9.28; CI: 17.46\u20131.10; p=0.03) and depression (SMD=9.42; CI: 13.59\u20135.26; p &lt;0.001), and significantly better quality of life (SMD=0.73; 95% CI: 0.39\u20131.08; p &lt;0.001) compared with non-active control groups. <\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title><jats:p> Significant effects of Tai Chi have been found in improving aerobic endurance and psychosocial well-being among coronary heart disease patients. Tai Chi could be a cost-effective and safe exercise option in cardiac rehabilitation. However, the effect of Tai Chi on cardiovascular disease risk reduction has not been amply investigated among coronary heart disease patients. Caution is also warranted in view of a small number of studies for this meta-analysis and potential heterogeneity in differences in the varied designs of Tai Chi intervention.
