HF-ACTION = Heart Failure: A Controlled Trial Investigating Outcomes of Exercise Training.

*

The adjusted enrollment total differs from the enrollment total to reflect the existence of U-centers, which had an expected level of enrollment as the basis for their grants.

The total score is the sum of the scores for adjusted enrollment, adherence, data completion, and other trial effort plus 150 points to ensure that no scores were negative.

These sites have the 4 top scores and are the examples used in the text.
