We searched the electronic databases MEDLINE, EMBASE and the Cochrane Database of Reviews (1994–1997) using a combination of subject heading and free text terms aimed at locating systematic reviews, meta-analyses and randomized trials. The search was backed up by the expert knowledge and experience of group members. The quality of relevant studies retrieved was assessed and, from relevant papers, the information was synthesized qualitatively. The studies on drug use were categorized against explicit criteria into two groups. The first group comprised studies that had high internal and external validity, reported exercise test results and which measured the outcomes that were likely to be available to a GP (GTN use, anginal frequency). In addition, studies which did not fulfil all these criteria were used provided they had high internal and external validity and reported exercise duration. The second group comprising studies that did not fulfil these criteria were cited as ‘supporting papers’ only and are reported in the full version of the guideline only.
