“…As expected, given the greater focus on dance rather other performing art forms in previous reviews, dance was the performing arts therapeutic medium for which there was the largest body of evidence with a total of 38 studies (see Additional file 1: Appendix 1 for details of each study). Twenty-two of these dance studies included a control group: variously physiotherapy, [51] exercise, [52][53][54][55][56][57][58] education, [59][60][61] support groups, [62,63] usual care, [55,[64][65][66][67][68][69][70][71][72][73][74][75][76][77] and a waiting list control [78]. Of these, there were 14 separate randomised controlled trials [51, 53-55, 57, 59, 61-70, 72, 75, 78, 79].…”

Background Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative condition associated with a wide range of motor and non-motor symptoms. There has been increasing interest in the potential benefit of performing arts as a therapeutic medium in PD. While there have been previous reviews, none have considered all performing arts modalities and most have focused on dance. This systematic review examined the potential benefit of all active group-based performing arts interventions for quality of life, functional communication, speech, motor function and cognitive status. Methods Searches were conducted in February 2020 on five scholarly databases. Supplementary searches were conducted. Included studies were quantitative in design, and assessed the potential benefit of any active group-based performing arts intervention for quality of life, functional communication, speech, motor function or cognitive status in people with PD. Full text papers were eligible for inclusion, as were conference abstracts since January 2018. Screening, data extraction, narrative synthesis and quality assessment were conducted independently by two reviewers. Quality assessment used the SURE checklists. Results Fifty-six studies were eligible for inclusion in this systematic review, reported in 67 publications. Published from 1989 to 2020, these studies included a total of 1531 people with PD from 12 countries, and covered four broad performing arts modalities: dance, singing, music therapy and theatre. Dance remains the most commonly studied performing arts modality for PD (38 studies), while there were 12 studies on singing interventions, four on music therapy, and only two on theatrical interventions. There was evidence for a beneficial effect of all four performing arts modalities on at least some outcome domains. Conclusions This is the first systematic review to assess the potential benefit of all active group-based performing arts interventions in PD. The evidence suggests that performing arts may be a useful therapeutic medium in PD. However, a substantial limitation of the evidence base is that no studies compared interventions from different performing arts modalities. Moreover, not all performing arts modalities were assessed for all outcome domains. Therefore it is not currently possible to determine which performing arts modalities are most beneficial for which specific outcomes.

“…These latter pursuits, could be undertaken and coached by trainers using video communication. Kalyani et al ( 2019 ) showed that dancing has beneficial effects on psychological symptoms (i.e., anxiety and depression) in people with Parkinson's disease. Dancing can encourage practitioners to express and channel their feelings and emotions, resulting in enjoyment, enhanced motivation, and mood (Prewitt et al, 2017 ), thus positively impacting their quality of life (Hackney and Bennett, 2014 ).…”

“…This strategy could replace part or a whole session of aerobic or endurance training when the duration of the exergame session is 20 min or more (Viana and de Lira, 2020 ). Dancing and yoga offer forms of physical activity that can be performed in small areas, and such activities might be helpful in reducing stress, anxiety, and depression, and even improving the quality of sleep (Chtourou et al, 2015 ; Ghayomzadeh et al, 2019 ; Kalyani et al, 2019 ; Wang and Szabo, 2020 ). These exercises could be performed for >30 min per session.…”

Staying Physically Active During the Quarantine and Self-Isolation Period for Controlling and Mitigating the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Systematic Overview of the Literature

et al. 2020

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The COVID-19 pandemic has created an unprecedented worldwide public health concern. Characterized by rapid and high frequency human-to-human transmission, the World Health Organization has recommended implementation of public health measures, including isolation of all suspected infectious individuals for a 14-day quarantine period, while governments have introduced "social distancing" and "lock-downs" of varying severity to curtail COVID-19 spread. Recent COVID-19 research further suggests there are major sleep problems and psychological disorders (e.g., stress, anxiety, depression) associated with the reduction of movement and activities, as well as the reduced social interaction. There have been no studies examining the effect of physical activity at home during such periods of isolation. However, based on previous research, potential tactics to overcome these negative effects include home-based exercise, exergaming, dancing to music, and participation in yoga. Adults should accumulate at least 150 min of moderate-intensity and at least 75 min of vigorous-intensity of activity divided in to 5-7 sessions per week. This training volume could be reduced by 30% for children and adolescents if replaced by recess or active play in and around the home. Additionally, exercises should be adapted to the fitness level of the participant and a progressive model of intensity and training volume should be utilized, preferably monitored by telephone applications and wearable sensors.

“…Sixteen met the outlined eligibility criteria and 18 were excluded. Reasons for excluding full-text articles reviewed included: used a "quasi" method of randomization (n = 1) [22], convenience sampling (n = 2) [45,46], and disease stage of participants not reported (n = 2) [47,48]. Thirteen trials presented in conference abstracts were also assessed for eligibility by contacting authors for more details.…”

The efficacy of dance for improving motor impairments, non-motor symptoms, and quality of life in Parkinson’s disease: A systematic review and meta-analysis

Dance may help individuals living with Parkinson's disease (PD) improve motor and nonmotor symptoms that impact quality of life (QOL). The primary aim of this systematic review of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) was to evaluate the efficacy of dance in improving motor and non-motor symptoms of PD and QOL. The secondary aims of this review were to evaluate the methodological quality of included studies by assessing risk of bias across nine categories and to inform the direction of future research. Peer-reviewed RCTs that included people living with PD at all disease stages and ages and measured the effects of a dance intervention longer than one day were included. Sixteen RCTs involving 636 participants with mild to moderate PD were eligible for inclusion in the qualitative synthesis and nine in the meta-analysis. Overall, the reviewed evidence demonstrated that dance can improve motor impairments, specifically balance and motor symptom severity in individuals with mild to moderate PD, and that more research is needed to determine its effects on non-motor symptoms and QOL. RCTs that use a mixed-methods approach and include larger sample sizes will be beneficial in fully characterizing effects and in determining which program elements are most important in bringing about positive, clinically meaningful changes in people with PD.
