“…The longest intervention is reported in the study of Corcos et al, in which they assessed the effects of 2 years of progressive resistance training 28. As regards the length of the training session, the shortest was the single 15-minute hand exercise reported by Mateos-Toset et al30 and the longest was the double 30-minute session of specific training plus one additional 60-minute session of common exercises, reported by Arcolin et al26 Most of the reviewed articles assessed the post-treatment effects, and only three reported the long-term effects 31,32,35,36…”

“…The range of disease severity assessed by the Hoehn and Yahr scale is 1.5–3; the lowest mean age considered is 58.6±5.6 years old28 and the maximum is 75.7±7.2 years old,32 and the number of subjects per study ranged from 22 to 60. The lowest intervention per week considered is reported in the study of Mateos-Toset et al, in which they highlighted the effects of a brief exercise session of hand training with therapeutic putty 30. The longest intervention is reported in the study of Corcos et al, in which they assessed the effects of 2 years of progressive resistance training 28.…”

“…Two studies involved training of both upper and lower limbs with weights/resistance machines 28,38. One study focused on manual dexterity and strength 30. Regarding the intervention program with weight machines, the initial intensity settled at a different percentage of one repetition maximum (1RM), ranging from 40% to 70%–80% of 1RM for lower limbs and from 30%–40% to 70%–80% of 1RM for upper limbs.…”

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of strength training, performed against a different resistance from body weight, in improving motor and nonmotor symptoms in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD). The following electronic databases were searched: PubMed, Physiotherapy Evidence Database, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, Scopus, and Web of Science. The review was conducted and reported in accordance with the PRISMA statement. Thirteen high-quality randomized controlled trials were included. Strength training performed against external resistance is well tolerated and appears to be a suitable physical activity to improve both physical parameters and quality of life parameters of PD subjects. However, although the study intervention included strength training, only a few selected studies assessed the improvement of muscle strength. Despite the encouraging results, it is difficult to establish a correlation between strength training and the improvements made. Our review highlights the lack of common intent in terms of study design and the presence of different primary and secondary outcomes. Accordingly, further studies are needed to support the beneficial effects of different types of strength training in PD subjects and to underline the superiority of strength training in PD patients with respect to other training.

Current medical management is only partially effective in controlling the symptoms of Parkinson's disease. As part of comprehensive multidisciplinary care, physical therapy and occupational therapy aim to support people with Parkinson's disease in dealing with the consequences of their disease in daily activities. In this narrative review, we address the limitations that people with Parkinson's disease may encounter despite optimal medical management, and we clarify both the unique and shared approaches that physical therapists and occupational therapists can apply in treating these limitations.

Objective Objective: To review studies assessing the efficacy of occupational therapy interventions on quality of life in patients with Parkinson's disease. Method Method: We followed the international guidelines of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses checklist. Databases (PubMed, Physiotherapy Evidence Database, OTsekeer, Scopus, Cinhal, and Web of Science) were searched to identify randomized controlled trials of occupational therapy interventions in patients with Parkinson's disease up to 2019 and with no restriction on language. The primary outcome of the meta-analysis was the evaluation of quality of life following occupational therapy interventions. Because of the heterogeneity of the studies, we examined the data by using a random effect model. Results Results: We identified 15 randomized controlled trials that met the inclusion criteria, and 4 of these were included in the meta-analysis. Studies with a follow-up of 2 to 3 months showed that occupational therapy interventions significantly improved the quality of life in patients with Parkinson's disease, with a mean difference of −2.08 (95% confidence interval, −2.52 to −1.64; P < 0.00001). Studies reporting a longer follow-up (6-12 months) also showed that occupational therapy interventions improved the quality of life, with a mean difference of −2.56 (95% confidence interval, −3.52 to −1.61; P < 0.00001). Conclusion Conclusion: Different occupational therapy interventions may be effective in improving the quality of life in patients with Parkinson's disease. However, because of the limited number of studies available, the strength of the evidence should be considered moderate.
