Abstract
Objective Sleep disorders are disabling and highly prevalent comorbidities in Parkinson's disease (PD). This study's objective was to verify the effectiveness of neurofunctional physiotherapy in sleep quality, objectively and subjectively assessing it among individuals with PD. Methods A sample of individuals with PD was assessed before and after 32 physiotherapy sessions and three months later (follow-up). The following instruments were used: Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI); Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS); Parkinson's Disease Sleep Scale (PDSS), and actigraphy. Results Nineteen individuals aged 67.37 years old ( ± 8.03) on average were included. No differences were found in any of the variables measured by the actigraphy or the ESS. Improvement was found from pre- to post-intervention in terms of nocturnal movements (p = 0.04; d = 0.46) and total score (p = 0.03; d = 0.53) obtained on the PDSS. Improvement was also found in the PDSS sleep onset/maintenance domain (p = 0.001; d = 0.75) between pre-intervention and follow-up. The participants' total score obtained in the PSQI improved from pre- to post-intervention (p = 0.03; d = 0.44). Significant differences were found in nighttime sleep (p = 0.02; d = 0.51) and nocturnal movements (p = 0.02; d = 0.55), and in the PDSS total score (p = 0.04; d = 0.63) between pre- and post-intervention when only the poor sleepers subgroup (n = 13) was considered, while improvements were found in sleep onset/maintenance (p = 0.003; d = 0.91) between pre-intervention and follow-up. Discussion Neurofunctional physiotherapy was ineffective in improving objective parameters of sleep but was effective in improving the perception of sleep quality subjectively assessed among individuals with PD, especially those who perceived themselves to be poor sleepers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND People with Parkinson's (PwP) are suffering from reduced exercise capacity. However, little information is known about clinical correlates of exercise capacity in this population. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate correlations between motor and non-motor symptoms with exercise capacity in PwP. METHODS A total of 50 individuals with Parkinson's disease participated in the study. Exercise capacity was measured by 6 minutes' walk test (6MWT). Besides, the Movement Disorder Society-Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale-Part III used to evaluate disease motor severity, Berg Balance Scale to assess balance, Montréal Cognitive Assessment to evaluate cognitive status, hospital anxiety and depression scale to assess depression and anxiety, Modified Fatigue Impact scale to evaluate fatigue, and the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index to evaluate sleep quality. RESULTS The results showed that exercise capacity, when measured by the 6MWT, can be significantly predicted by balance, disease motor severity, anxiety, and age (R2 = 0.61 P < .0001). CONCLUSION These results suggest that exercise capacity in PwP is multifactorial and can potentially be predicted by balance, motor severity, anxiety, and age.

Abstract
An accumulation of research has indicated that persons with psychotic disorders experience a variety of sleep disturbances. However, few studies have examined the psychometric properties of sleep assessments that are utilized in this population. We conducted two studies to examine the reliability and validity of the PROMISTM Sleep Disturbance and Sleep-Related Impairment scales in outpatient samples of persons with psychosis. In Study 1, we examined the internal consistency and convergent validity of the PROMIS sleep scales in individuals with various psychotic disorders (N = 98) and healthy controls (N = 22). The PROMIS sleep scales showed acceptable internal consistency and convergent validity in both healthy controls and individuals with psychotic disorders. In addition, replicating prior research, the PROMIS scales identified greater sleep disturbance and sleep-related impairment in participants with psychotic disorders compared to healthy controls. In Study 2, we examined the test-retest reliability (M = 358 days) of the PROMIS sleep scales in a subset (N = 37) of persons with psychotic disorders who previously participated in Study 1. We also assessed the relation between these self-report measures and actigraph sleep parameters. The results showed that PROMIS sleep measures demonstrated modest temporal stability in the current sample. Contrary to our hypothesis, there was a lack of correspondence between these scales and actigraph sleep parameters. Overall, these findings indicate that the PROMIS sleep scales are psychometrically sound measures for populations with psychosis and highlight the importance of utilizing a multi-method approach to assess sleep.

The effects of exercise on sleep quality in persons with Parkinson's disease: A systematic review with meta-analysis. Sleep Med Rev 2020; 55:101384. [PMID: 32987321 DOI: 10.1016/j.smrv.2020.101384] [Citation(s) in RCA: 35] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2020] [Revised: 06/28/2020] [Accepted: 06/30/2020] [Indexed: 12/20/2022]
Abstract
We conducted a systematic review with meta-analysis to determine the evidence in support of exercise to improve sleep quality assessed subjectively and objectively in Parkinson's Disease (PD). Standardized mean differences (SMD) comparing the effects of exercise and control interventions on sleep quality with 95% confidence intervals (CI) were calculated. Data from 10 randomized and 2 non-randomized controlled trials, including a total of 690 persons with PD were included. Exercise had a significant positive effect on sleep quality assessed subjectively (SMD = 0.53; 95% CI = 0.16-0.90; p = 0.005). However, the methodological quality of the studies showing positive effects on sleep quality was significantly poorer than the studies showing no effects. Only one study assessed the impact of exercise on objective sleep quality, showing improvements in sleep efficiency assessed with polysomnography (SMD = 0.94; 95% CI = 0.38-1.50; p = 0.001). Exercise performed at moderate to maximal intensities (SMD = 0.46; 95% CI = 0.05-0.87; p = 0.03) had significant effects on subjective sleep quality. In contrast, exercise performed at mild to moderate intensities showed non-significant effects (SMD = 0.76; 95% CI = -0.24-1.76; p = 0.14). These results support the use of exercise to improve sleep quality in persons with PD and reinforce the importance of achieving vigorous exercise intensities. Biases, limitations, practice points and directions for future research are discussed.
