Yuan Y, Wang J, Wang G, Wang T, Zhang H, Fu X, Wu L, Chen X, Xia R, Zhang L, Lin SC, Yang Y. Optimal dosage ranges of various exercise types for enhancing timed up and go performance in Parkinson's disease patients: a systematic review and Bayesian network meta-analysis. Front Aging Neurosci 2024; 16:1399175. [PMID: 38988329 PMCID: PMC11234838 DOI: 10.3389/fnagi.2024.1399175] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2024] [Accepted: 06/11/2024] [Indexed: 07/12/2024] Open
Abstract
Objective To examine the dose-response relationship between specific types of exercise for alleviating Timed up and Go (TUG) in Parkinson's disease PD. Design Systematic review and Bayesian network meta-analysis. Data sources PubMed, Medline, Embase, PsycINFO, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science were searched from inception until February 5th, 2024. Study analysis Data analysis was conducted using R software with the MBNMA package. Effect sizes of outcome indicators were expressed as mean deviation (MD) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CrI). The risk of bias in the network was evaluated independently by two reviewers using ROB2. Results A total of 73 studies involving 3,354 PD patients. The text discusses dose-response relationships in improving TUG performance among PD patients across various exercise types. Notably, Aquatic (AQE), Mix Exercise (Mul_C), Sensory Exercise (SE), and Resistance Training (RT) demonstrate effective dose ranges, with AQE optimal at 1500 METs-min/week (MD: -8.359, 95% CI: -1.398 to -2.648), Mul_C at 1000 METs-min/week (MD: -4.551, 95% CI: -8.083 to -0.946), SE at 1200 METs-min/week (MD: -5.145, 95% CI: -9.643 to -0.472), and RT at 610 METs-min/week (MD: -2.187, 95% CI: -3.161 to -1.278), respectively. However, no effective doses are found for Aerobic Exercise (AE), Balance Gait Training (BGT), Dance, and Treadmill Training (TT). Mind-body exercise (MBE) shows promise with an effective range of 130 to 750 METs-min/week and an optimal dose of 750 METs-min/week (MD: -2.822, 95% CI: -4.604 to -0.996). According to the GRADE system, the included studies' overall quality of the evidence was identified moderate level. Conclusion This study identifies specific exercise modalities and dosages that significantly enhance TUG performance in PD patients. AQE emerges as the most effective modality, with an optimal dosage of 1,500 METs-min/week. MBE shows significant benefits at lower dosages, catering to patients with varying exercise capacities. RT exhibits a nuanced "U-shaped" dose-response relationship, suggesting an optimal range balancing efficacy and the risk of overtraining. These findings advocate for tailored exercise programs in PD management, emphasizing personalized prescriptions to maximize outcomes.Systematic Review Registration: International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO) (CRD42024506968).

Effectiveness of Balance Exercise and Brisk Walking on Alleviating Nonmotor and Motor Symptoms in People With Mild-to-Moderate Parkinson Disease: A Randomized Clinical Trial With 6-Month Follow-up. Arch Phys Med Rehabil 2024:S0003-9993(24)01052-9. [PMID: 38866225 DOI: 10.1016/j.apmr.2024.05.031] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2023] [Revised: 05/22/2024] [Accepted: 05/23/2024] [Indexed: 06/14/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of balance exercise and brisk walking on nonmotor and motor symptoms, balance and gait functions, walking capacity, and balance confidence in Parkinson disease (PD) at posttraining and 6-month follow-up. DESIGN Two-arm, assessor-blinded randomized controlled trial SETTING: University research laboratory and the community PARTICIPANTS: Ninety-nine eligible individuals with mild-to-moderate PD INTERVENTIONS: Participants were randomized to balance and brisk walking group (B&B, n=49) or active control group (n=50). B&B received ten 90-minute sessions of balance exercises and brisk walking supervised by physical therapists for 6 months (week 1-6: weekly, week 7-26: monthly), whereas control practiced whole-body flexibility and upper limb strength exercise at same dosage (180 min/wk). Both groups performed unsupervised home exercises 2-3 times/wk during intervention and continued at follow-up. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Primary outcomes were Movement Disorder Society Unified Parkinson Disease Rating Scale nonmotor (MDS-UPDRS-I) and motor (MDS-UPRDS-III) scores. Secondary outcomes were mini-Balance Evaluation Systems Test (mini-BEST) score, comfortable gait speed (CGS), 6-minute walk test (6MWT), dual-task timed-Up-and-Go (DTUG) time, and Activities-Specific Balance Confidence Scale score. RESULTS Eighty-three individuals completed the 6-month intervention with no severe adverse effects. The mean between-group (95% CI) difference for the MDS-UPDRS nonmotor score was 1.50 (0.19-2.81) at 6 months and 1.09 (-0.66 to 2.85) at 12 months. The mean between-group (95% CI) difference for the MDS-UPDRS motor score was 3.75 (0.69-6.80) at 6 months and 4.57 (1.05-8.01) at 12 months. At 6 and 12 months, there were significant between-group improvements of the B&B group in mini-BEST score, CGS, 6MWT, and DTUG time. CONCLUSIONS This combined balance and brisk walking exercise program alleviates nonmotor and motor symptoms and improves walking capacity, balance, and gait functions posttraining, with positive carryover effects for all except nonmotor outcomes, at 6-month follow-up in mild-to-moderate PD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A growing body of research examining the effect of exercise on cognitive function in stroke patients, while findings of available studies were conflicting. OBJECTIVES We aimed to estimate the effect of exercise on cognitive function in stroke patients. METHODS For this systematic review and meta-analysis, we searched PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane, and Scopus electronic databases, through 13 March 2023. The three-level restricted maximum likelihood random effects model was used to synthesize the data. RESULTS Twenty-five studies met the inclusion criteria. There was a significant effect of exercise on improving cognitive function in stroke patients (Cohen's d = 0.37, 95% CI, 0.16 to 0.58, p < 0.01, I2 = 22.12%). Subgroup analysis showed that exercise significantly improved memory. In addition, aerobic exercise, exercise conducted 12 weeks or more, 3 times or more per week, less than 60 minutes per session, less than 180 minutes per week, and up to 12 months post-stroke increased cognitive function significantly. CONCLUSIONS Exercise improved cognitive function in stroke patients. To improve cognitive function, this meta-analysis provides clinicians with evidence to recommend that stroke patients participate in aerobic exercise at least 3 times per week for 30-60 minutes, with a goal of 180 minutes per week being achieved by increasing the frequency of exercise. Exercise initiated within 12 months post-stroke and continued for 12 weeks or more is most beneficial for improving cognitive function.

Abstract
Background Low adherence to non-pharmacological interventions can impact treatment effectiveness. Yet, there is limited information on adherence barriers and facilitators to non-pharmacological interventions in Parkinson's disease (PD). Objective 1) To examine the quality of adherence reporting and 2) to identify key determinants of adherence to PD non-pharmacological interventions. Methods A rapid evidence assessment was conducted, following PRISMA guidelines, that included controlled studies of exercise, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech-language therapy with explicit reporting of 'adherence' OR 'compliance', published in the last 15 years. Data extracted included: adherence rates, adherence outcomes, and factors associated with adherence. A collaborative thematic analysis was conducted to identify determinants of adherence. Results The search yielded 2,445 articles of which 114 met criteria for full screening with 45 studies meeting all inclusion criteria. High quality adherence data that aligned with the intervention goals were reported by 22.22%(N = 10) of studies, with the majority reporting attendance/attrition rates only 51.11%(N = 23). Four major themes (34 subthemes) emerged: disease and health, personal, program design, and system and environmental. Conclusions There has been limited progress in the quality of adherence reporting in PD non-pharmacological interventions over the last decade. Acknowledging this limitation, key determinants of adherence included: alignment with personal beliefs, attitudes, and expectations; the demands of the intervention and worsening disease symptoms and personal/time obligations; and accessibility and safety concerns. Program design elements found to facilitate adherence included: opportunities for social engagement and in-person offerings linked to higher levels of interventionist support, performative feedback, and social reinforcement.

Abstract
This study aimed to explore the effects of acute ingestion of caffeine capsules on muscle strength and muscle endurance. We searched the PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane, Scopus, and EBSCO databases. Data were pooled using the weighted mean difference (WMD) and 95% confidence interval. Fourteen studies fulfilled the inclusion criteria. The acute ingestion of caffeine capsules significantly improved muscle strength (WMD, 7.09, p < 0.00001) and muscle endurance (WMD, 1.37; p < 0.00001), especially in males (muscle strength, WMD, 7.59, p < 0.00001; muscle endurance, WMD, 1.40, p < 0.00001). Subgroup analyses showed that ≥ 6 mg/kg body weight of caffeine (WMD, 6.35, p < 0.00001) and ingesting caffeine 45 min pre-exercise (WMD, 8.61, p < 0.00001) were more effective in improving muscle strength, with the acute ingestion of caffeine capsules having a greater effect on lower body muscle strength (WMD, 10.19, p < 0.00001). In addition, the acute ingestion of caffeine capsules had a greater effect in moderate-intensity muscle endurance tests (WMD, 1.76, p < 0.00001). An acute ingestion of caffeine capsules significantly improved muscle strength and muscle endurance in the upper body and lower body of males.

Abstract
Building on current explorations in chronic optical neural interfaces, it is essential to address the risk of photothermal damage in traditional optogenetics. By focusing on calcium fluorescence for imaging rather than stimulation, injectable fluorescent neural interfaces significantly minimize photothermal damage and improve the accuracy of neuronal imaging. Key advancements including the use of injectable microelectronics for targeted electrical stimulation and their integration with cell-specific genetically encoded calcium indicators have been discussed. These injectable electronics that allow for post-treatment retrieval offer a minimally invasive solution, enhancing both usability and reliability. Furthermore, the integration of genetically encoded fluorescent calcium indicators with injectable bioelectronics enables precise neuronal recording and imaging of individual neurons. This shift not only minimizes risks such as photothermal conversion but also boosts safety, specificity, and effectiveness of neural imaging. Embracing these advancements represents a significant leap forward in biomedical engineering and neuroscience, paving the way for advanced brain-machine interfaces.

Abstract
Background A growing body of studies have examined the effect of exercise in people with multiple sclerosis (MS), while findings of available studies were conflicting. This meta-analysis aimed to explore the effects of exercise on balance, walking ability, walking endurance, fatigue, and quality of life in people with MS. Methods We searched PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and Cochrane databases, through March 1, 2024. Inclusion criteria were: (1) RCTs; (2) included an intervention and control group; (3) had people with MS as study subjects; (4) had balance, walking ability, walking endurance, fatigue, or quality of life as the outcome measures. Exclusion criteria were: (1) non-English publications; (2) animal model publications; (3) review articles; and (4) conference articles. A meta-analysis was conducted to calculate weighted mean difference (WMD) and 95% confidence interval (CI). Cochrane risk assessment tool and Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro) scale were used to evaluate the methodological quality of the included studies. Results Forty studies with a total of 56 exercise groups (n = 1,300) and 40 control groups (n = 827) were eligible for meta-analysis. Exercise significantly improved BBS (WMD, 3.77; 95% CI, 3.01 to 4.53, P < 0.00001), TUG (WMD, -1.33; 95% CI, -1.57 to -1.08, P < 0.00001), MSWS-12 (WMD, -2.57; 95% CI, -3.99 to -1.15, P = 0.0004), 6MWT (WMD, 25.56; 95% CI, 16.34 to 34.79, P < 0.00001), fatigue (WMD, -4.34; 95% CI, -5.83 to -2.84, P < 0.00001), and MSQOL-54 in people with MS (WMD, 11.80; 95% CI, 5.70 to 17.90, P = 0.0002) in people with MS. Subgroup analyses showed that aerobic exercise, resistance exercise, and multicomponent training were all effective in improving fatigue in people with MS, with resistance exercise being the most effective intervention type. In addition, a younger age was associated with a larger improvement in fatigue. Furthermore, aerobic exercise and multicomponent training were all effective in improving quality of life in people with MS, with aerobic exercise being the most effective intervention type. Conclusion Exercise had beneficial effects in improving balance, walking ability, walking endurance, fatigue, and quality of life in people with MS. Resistance exercise and aerobic exercise are the most effective interventions for improving fatigue and quality of life in people with MS, respectively. The effect of exercise on improving fatigue was associated with the age of the participants, with the younger age of the participants, the greater the improvement in fatigue.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Respiratory disorders are the most common cause of death in Parkinson's Disease (PD). Conflicting data exist on the aetiology of respiratory dysfunction in PD and few studies examine the effects of exercise-based interventions on respiratory measures. This study was conducted to better understand respiratory dysfunction in PD and to identify measures of dysfunction responsive to an integrative exercise programme. OBJECTIVES The objectives were to compare baseline respiratory measures with matched, published population norms and to examine immediate and longer-term effects of a 12-week integrated exercise programme on these measures. DESIGN Twenty-three people with mild PD (median Hoehn & Yahr = 2) self-selected to participate in this exploratory prospective cohort study. Evaluation of participants occurred at three time points: at baseline; following the 12-week exercise programme and at 4-month follow-up. OUTCOME MEASURES Outcome measures included: Forced Vital Capacity (FVC), Forced Expiratory Volume in 1 second (FEV1), FEV1/FVC ratio, Peak Expiratory Flow (PEF), Inspiratory Muscle Strength (MIP), Expiratory Muscle Strength (MEP), Peak Cough Flow (PCF), and Cardiovascular Fitness measures of estimated VO2 max and 6-Minute Walk Test (6MWT). RESULTS Compared to published norms, participants had impaired cough, reduced respiratory muscle strength, FEV, FVC, PEF and cardiovascular fitness. Post exercise intervention, statistically significant improvements were noted in MEP, cardiovascular fitness, and PEF. However only gains in PEF were maintained at 4-month follow-up. CONCLUSIONS Significant respiratory dysfunction exists, even in the early stages of PD. Metrics of respiratory muscle strength, peak expiratory flow and cardiovascular fitness appear responsive to an integrative exercise programme.

[PMID: 38552099 PMCID: PMC10977540 DOI: 10.1097/md.0000000000037470] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/24/2023] [Accepted: 02/12/2024] [Indexed: 04/02/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Long-term physical exercise has been shown to benefit patients with Parkinson disease (PD), but there is a lack of evidence regarding the underlying mechanism. A better understanding of how such benefits are induced by exercise might contribute to the development of therapeutic targets for improving the motor function in individuals with PD. The purpose of this study was therefore to investigate the possible association between exercise-induced motor improvements and the changes in serum microRNA (miRNA) levels of PD patients through small RNA sequencing for the first time. METHODS Thirteen PD patients completed our 3-month home-and-community-based exercise program, while 6 patients were assigned to the control group. Motor functions were measured, and small RNA sequencing with data analysis was performed on serum miRNAs both before and after the program. The results were further validated by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes enrichment analyses were then conducted to determine the role of differentially expressed miRNAs. RESULTS The 3-month home-and-community-based exercise program induced significant motor improvements in PD patients in terms of Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale activities of daily living and Motor Subscale (P < .05), comfortable walking speed (P = .003), fast walking speed (P = .028), Six-Minute Walk Test (P = .004), Berg Balance Scale (P = .039), and Timed Up and Go (P = .002). A total of 11 miRNAs (10 upregulated and one downregulated) were identified to be remarkably differentially expressed after intervention in the exercise group, but not in the control group. The results of miRNA sequencing were further validated by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction. It was found that the targets of altered miRNAs were mostly enriched in the mitogen-activated protein kinase, Wnt, and Hippo signaling pathways and the GO annotations mainly included binding, catalytic activity, and transcription regulator activity. CONCLUSION The exercise-induced motor improvements were possibly associated with changes in circulating miRNA levels in PD patients. These miRNAs, as well as the most enriched pathways and GO terms, may play a critical role in the mechanism of exercise-induced benefits in PD and serve as novel treatment targets for the disease, although further investigations are needed.

Abstract
Introduction An increasing number of studies have investigated the effect of exercise on flow-mediated dilation (FMD) in people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), while the findings were controversial. The primary aim of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to investigate the effect of exercise on FMD in T2DM patients, and the secondary aim was to investigate the optimal type, frequency, session duration, and weekly time of exercise for T2DM patients. Methods Searches were conducted in PubMed, Cochrane Library, Scopus, Web of Science, Embase and EBSCO databases. The Cochrane risk of bias tool (RoB2) in randomized trial and Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro) scale were used to assess the methodological quality of the included studies. Results From the 3636 search records initially retrieved, 13 studies met the inclusion criteria. Our meta-analysis revealed that exercise had a significant effect on improving FMD in T2DM patients [WMD, 2.18 (95% CI, 1.78-2.58), p < 0.00001, I2 = 38%], with high-intensity interval training (HIIT) being the most effective intervention type [HIIT, 2.62 (1.42-3.82); p < 0.0001; aerobic exercise, 2.20 (1.29-3.11), p < 0.00001; resistance exercise, 1.91 (0.01-3.82), p = 0.05; multicomponent training, 1.49 (0.15-2.83), p = 0.03]. In addition, a higher frequency [> 3 times, 3.06 (1.94-4.19), p < 0.00001; ≤ 3 times, 2.02 (1.59-2.45), p < 0.00001], a shorter session duration [< 60 min, 3.39 (2.07-4.71), p < 0.00001; ≥ 60 min, 1.86 (1.32-2.40), p < 0.00001], and a shorter weekly time [≤ 180 min, 2.40 (1.63-3.17), p < 0.00001; > 180 min, 2.11 (0.82-3.40), p = 0.001] were associated with larger improvements in FMD. Conclusion This meta-analysis provides clinicians with evidence to recommended that T2DM patients participate in exercise, especially HIIT, more than 3 times per week for less than 60 min, with a target of 180 min per week being reached by increasing the frequency of exercise.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is an incurable and progressive neurological disorder leading to deleterious motor and non-motor consequences. Presently, no pharmacological agents can prevent PD evolution or progression, while pharmacological symptomatic treatments have limited effects in certain domains and cause side effects. Identification of interventions that prevent, slow, halt or mitigate the disease is therefore pivotal. Exercise is safe and represents a cornerstone in PD rehabilitation, but exercise may have even more fundamental benefits that could change clinical practice. In PD, the existing knowledge base supports exercise as (1) a protective lifestyle factor preventing the disease (ie, primary prevention), (2) a potential disease-modifying therapy (ie, secondary prevention) and (3) an effective symptomatic treatment (ie, tertiary prevention). Based on current evidence, a paradigm shift is proposed, stating that exercise should be individually prescribed as medicine to persons with PD at an early disease stage, alongside conventional medical treatment.

Abstract
Allied health therapies refer to a range of healthcare professionals, including physiotherapists, occupational and speech-language therapists, who aim to optimize daily function and quality of life in conjunction with medical care. In this narrative review of literature on allied health therapies in people with Parkinson's disease (PD), we focused on the diversity in healthcare access, state of the art, current challenges in the African continent, and proposed solutions and future perspectives. Despite the increasing prevalence and awareness of PD in Africa, numerous challenges persist in its management. These include resource limitations, geographical barriers, sociocultural beliefs, and economic constraints. Nevertheless, innovative solutions, including telerehabilitation and community-based rehabilitation, offer hope. Collaborative efforts within the continent and internationally have shown potential in bridging training and resource gaps. Significant strides can be made with tailored interventions, technological advancements, and multifaceted collaborations. This review offers practical insights for healthcare professionals, policymakers, and caregivers to navigate and optimize PD care in the African context.

Abstract
Freezing of gait (FOG) is a debilitating problem that is common among many, but not all, people with Parkinson's disease (PD). Numerous attempts have been made at treating FOG to reduce its negative impact on fall risk, functional independence, and health-related quality of life. However, optimal treatment remains elusive. Observational studies have recently investigated factors that differ among patients with PD who later develop FOG, compared to those who do not. With prediction and prevention in mind, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of publications through 31.12.2022 to identify risk factors. Studies were included if they used a cohort design, included patients with PD without FOG at baseline, data on possible FOG predictors were measured at baseline, and incident FOG was assessed at follow-up. 1068 original papers were identified, 38 met a-priori criteria, and 35 studies were included in the meta-analysis (n = 8973; mean follow-up: 4.1 ± 2.7 years). Factors significantly associated with a risk of incident FOG included: higher age at onset of PD, greater severity of motor symptoms, depression, anxiety, poorer cognitive status, and use of levodopa and COMT inhibitors. Most results were robust in four subgroup analyses. These findings indicate that changes associated with FOG incidence can be detected in a subset of patients with PD, sometimes as long as 12 years before FOG manifests, supporting the possibility of predicting FOG incidence. Intriguingly, some of these factors may be modifiable, suggesting that steps can be taken to lower the risk and possibly even prevent the future development of FOG.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effectiveness of different types of physiotherapy interventions in people with Parkinson's disease (PD). DESIGN Systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs). METHODS Five databases (PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, CINAHL and Web of Science Core Collection) were searched for relevant RCTs published from database inception to July 14, 2022. Reviewers independently screened the literature, extracted data, and assessed the literature quality according to the Cochrane Collaboration Risk of Bias Tool and PEDro Scale. This meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.4.1 and reported in compliance with the PRISMA statement. RESULTS Forty-two RCTs with 2,530 participants were included. Across all types of physiotherapy, strength training, mind-body exercise, aerobic exercise, and non-invasive brain stimulation (NiBS) were effective in improving motor symptoms as measured by the (Movement Disorders Society-) Unified PD Scale, whereas balance and gait training (BGT) and acupuncture were not. The pooled results showed that the change in mind-body exercise (MD = -5.36, 95% CI [-7.97 to -2.74], p < .01, I2 = 68%) and NiBS (MD = -4.59, 95% CI [-8.59 to -0.59], p = .02, I2 = 78%) reached clinical threshold, indicating clinically meaningful improvements. Considering the effectiveness of the interventions on motor symptoms, balance, gait and functional mobility, mind-body exercise was recommended the most. CONCLUSIONS Exercise appears to be a better form of physiotherapy than NiBS and acupuncture for improving motor function. Mind-body exercise showed beneficial effects on motor symptoms, balance, gait and functional mobility in people with PD, and is worthy of being promoted.

Abstract
Viewing metabolism through the lens of exercise biology has proven an accessible and practical strategy to gain new insights into local and systemic metabolic regulation. Recent methodological developments have advanced understanding of the central role of skeletal muscle in many exercise-associated health benefits and have uncovered the molecular underpinnings driving adaptive responses to training regimens. In this Review, we provide a contemporary view of the metabolic flexibility and functional plasticity of skeletal muscle in response to exercise. First, we provide background on the macrostructure and ultrastructure of skeletal muscle fibres, highlighting the current understanding of sarcomeric networks and mitochondrial subpopulations. Next, we discuss acute exercise skeletal muscle metabolism and the signalling, transcriptional and epigenetic regulation of adaptations to exercise training. We address knowledge gaps throughout and propose future directions for the field. This Review contextualizes recent research of skeletal muscle exercise metabolism, framing further advances and translation into practice.

Abstract
Background: There is no clear agreement regarding the ideal rest interval and training intensity to optimize post-activation performance enhancement (PAPE) after barbell squat (BS). Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of rest interval and training intensity on jumping performance due to PAPE. Methods: Searches were performed in PubMed, Web of Science, and EBSCO databases. We included studies that satisfied the following criteria: (1) eligible studies should be randomized controlled trials; (2) eligible studies should investigate the acute effect of barbell squat-induced PAPE on jump performance; (3) eligible studies should use countermovement jump, squat jump, or vertical jump as the outcome measure. Results: From 2518 search records initially identified, 19 studies were eligible for meta-analysis. Our meta-analysis results showed that BS had no significant effect on improving jumping performance due to PAPE (Cohen's d = 0.09, p = 0.08). Subgroup analysis showed that rest interval between 0-1 min was detrimental to jumping performance (Cohen's d = -0.33, p < 0.01), while rest intervals between 4-7 min (Cohen's d = 0.31, p < 0.01) and 8-9 min (Cohen's d = 0.26, p = 0.02) provided favorable jumping performance outcomes. In addition, low-intensity and moderate-intensity BS had no significant effect on jump performance, while high-intensity BS showed results consistent with rest interval. Conclusion: Our study indicated that both low-intensity and moderate-intensity BS failed to induce PAPE, and it is recommended that future studies use high-intensity BS to induce PAPE. A rest interval of 4-9 min had a beneficial impact on jump height, and an interval range of 4-7 min seems to be the best rest interval between conditioning activity and jumping performance.

Abstract
Neurodegenerative diseases have reached alarming numbers in the past decade. Unfortunately, clinical trials testing potential therapeutics have proven futile. In the absence of disease-modifying therapies, physical activity has emerged as the single most accessible lifestyle modification with the potential to fight off cognitive decline and neurodegeneration. In this review, we discuss findings from epidemiological, clinical, and molecular studies investigating the potential of lifestyle modifications in promoting brain health. We propose an evidence-based multidomain approach that includes physical activity, diet, cognitive training, and sleep hygiene to treat and prevent neurodegenerative diseases.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE A growing body of research examining the effect of exercise on cognitive function in people with multiple sclerosis (MS), while findings of available studies were conflicting. We aimed to explore the effect of exercise on cognitive function in MS patients. METHODS For this systematic review and meta-analysis, we searched PubMed, Web of Science, EBSCO, Cochrane, and Scopus electronic databases, through July 18, 2022. Cochrane risk assessment tool was used to evaluate the methodological quality of the included literature. RESULTS Twenty-one studies with a total of 23 experimental groups and 21 control groups met the inclusion criteria. There was a significant effect of exercise on improving cognitive function in MS patients, while the effect size was small (Cohen's d = 0.20, 95% CI 0.06-0.34, p < 0.001, I2 = 39.31%). Subgroup analysis showed that exercise significantly improved memory (Cohen's d = 0.17, 95% CI 0.02-0.33, p = 0.03, I2 = 7.59%). In addition, multicomponent training, exercise conducted 8 weeks and 10 weeks, up to 60 min per session, 3 times or more per week, 180 min or more per week increased cognitive function significantly. Furthermore, a worse basal MS status (defined by the Expanded Disability Status Scale) and an older age were associated with greater improvement in cognitive function. CONCLUSION MS patients are recommended to participate in at least three multicomponent training sessions per week, with each session lasting up to 60 min, and the exercise goal of 180 min per week can be achieved by increasing the frequency of exercise. Exercise lasting 8 or 10 weeks is best for cognitive function improvement. Additionally, a worse basal MS status, or the older the age, the greater effect on cognitive function.

Abstract
Background: Current research suggests that continuous aerobic exercise can be effective in improving vascular endothelial function, while the effect between different intensities and durations of exercise is unclear. The aim of this study was to explore the effect of different durations and intensities of aerobic exercise on vascular endothelial function in different populations. Methods: Searches were performed in PubMed, Web of Science, and EBSCO databases. We included studies that satisfied the following criteria: 1) randomized controlled trials (RCTs); 2) including both an intervention and control group; 3) using flow-mediated dilation (FMD) as the outcome measure; and 4) testing FMD on the brachial artery. Results: From 3,368 search records initially identified, 41 studies were eligible for meta-analysis. There was a significant effect of continuous aerobic exercise on improving flow-mediated dilation (FMD) [weighted mean difference (WMD), 2.55, (95% CI, 1.93-3.16), p < 0.001]. Specifically, moderate-intensity [2.92 (2.02-3.825), p < 0.001] and vigorous-intensity exercise [2.58 (1.64-3.53), p < 0.001] significantly increased FMD. In addition, a longer duration [<12 weeks, 2.25 (1.54-2.95), p < 0.001; ≥12 weeks, 2.74 (1.95-3.54), p < 0.001], an older age [age <45, 2.09 (0.78-3.40), p = 0.002; 45 ≤ age <60, 2.25 (1.49-3.01), p < 0.001; age ≥60, 2.62 (1.31-3.94), p < 0.001], a larger basal body mass index (BMI) [20 < BMI < 25, 1.43 (0.98-1.88), p < 0.001; 25 ≤ BMI < 30, 2.49 (1.07-3.90), p < 0.001; BMI ≥ 30, 3.05 (1.69-4.42), p < 0.001], and a worse basal FMD [FMD < 4, 2.71 (0.92-4.49), p = 0.003; 4 ≤ FMD < 7, 2.63 (2.03-3.23), p < 0.001] were associated with larger improvements in FMD. Conclusion: Continuous aerobic exercise, especially moderate-intensity and vigorous-intensity aerobic exercise, contributed to improving FMD. The effect of continuous aerobic exercise on improving FMD was associated with duration and participant's characteristics. Specifically, a longer duration, an older age, a larger basal BMI, and a worse basal FMD contributed to more significant improvements in FMD.

[PMID: 36633762 PMCID: PMC10043092 DOI: 10.1007/s40120-022-00435-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2022] [Accepted: 12/20/2022] [Indexed: 01/13/2023] Open
Abstract
Motor fluctuations (MF) are deemed by patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) as the most troublesome disease feature resulting from the increasing impairment in responsiveness to dopaminergic drug treatments. MF are characterized by the loss of a stable response to levodopa over the nychthemeron with the reappearance of motor (and non-motor) parkinsonian clinical signs at various moments during the day and night. They normally appear after a few years of levodopa treatment and with a variable, though overall increasing severity, over the disease course. The armamentarium of first-line treatment options has widened in the last decade with new once-a-daily compounds, including a catechol O-methyltransferase inhibitor - Opicapone-, two MAO-B inhibitors plus channel blocker - Zonisamide and Safinamide and one amantadine extended-release formulation - ADS5012. In addition to apomorphine injection or oral levodopa dispersible tablets, which have been available for a long time, new on-demand therapies such as apomorphine sublingual or levodopa inhaled formulations have recently shown efficacy as rescue therapies for Off-time treatment. When the management of MF becomes difficult in spite of oral/on-demand options, more complex therapies should be considered, including surgical, i.e. deep brain stimulation, or device-aided therapies with pump systems delivering continuous subcutaneous or intestinal levodopa or subcutaneous apomorphine formulation. Older and less commonly used ablative techniques (radiofrequency pallidotomy) may also be effective while there is still scarce data regarding Off-time reduction using a new lesional approach, i.e. magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound. The choice between the different advanced therapies options is a shared decision that should consider physician opinion on contraindication/main target symptom, patients' preference, caregiver's availability together with public health systems and socio-economic environment. The choice of the right/first add-on treatment is still a matter of debate as well as the proper time for an advanced therapy to be considered. In this narrative review, we discuss all the above cited aspects of MF in patients with PD, including their phenomenology, management, by means of pharmacological and advanced therapies, on-going clinical trials and future research and treatment perspectives.

Abstract
In a retrospective analysis, we recently reported findings on the detrimental motor effects of interrupted physiotherapy following the COVID-19 pandemic in parkinsonian patients. Using an extended follow-up period, we investigated the beneficial effect of reinstated physiotherapy on patients' disease severity and reversal of interruption-induced motor deterioration. Compared to before the COVID-19 outbreak, we observed persistence of motor disease worsening despite full resumption of state-of-the-art physical therapy suggesting that motor deterioration after discontinuation of physical therapy could not be compensated for. Therefore, and considering possible future crises, establishing means to safeguard continuation of physical therapy and to foster remote provision of care should be major goals.
