ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of exercise for people with Parkinson's disease on sleep quality.Methods Computerized retrieval of PubMed,Web of Science,Embase,the Cochrane Library,CINAHL,CN-KI,WanFang Data,VIP,CBM was conducted to collect randomized controlled trials about the effect of exercise on people with Parkinson's disease from inception to December,2022.There were 2 researchers who independently screened the literature,extracted the data and evaluated the risks of bias in the included studies.Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.4 software.Results A total of 13 studies were included,with 874 patients.The result of meta-analysis show that the overall effect size of exercise intervention on sleep quality for people with Parkin-son's disease is significant(SMD=-0.54,95％CI=[-0.90,-0.19],P＜0.01).Subgroup analysis show that the maxi-mum effect size of intervention frequency is 4-5 times/week(SMD=-0.75);the maximum effect size of exercise intensity is light intensity(SMD=-2.19);the maximum effect size of a single intervention time is 40-55 minutes(SMD=-0.69);the maximum effect size of exercise type is traditional Chinese exercise(SMD=-0.63);the maximum ef-fect size of intervention cycle is 12 weeks(SMD=-0.66).Conclusion Exercise intervention has significantly ef-fects to improve sleep quality on Parkinson's disease patients.It is a more effective way to improve sleep quality by exercising 4-5 times per week,while each exercise lasts about 40-55 min for 12 weeks in Traditional Chinese Medicine exercise with light intensity.
