Parkinson Disease Clinical Trial
Official title:
Intensive Running Exercise Improves Parkinson's Motor and Non-motor Symptoms
High quality clinical trial and meta-analysis have demonstrated short term, and to a lesser
extent, long term benefits in various outcome measures. To achieve positive effects,
supervised progressive strength and aerobic endurance training program of 12 weeks was
required. Extended progressive strength training improved muscle strength for up to 24
months. While aerobic endurance training would increase walking capacity up to 16 months. 1
There are data suggesting a threshold of intensity of exercise to be reached for the positive
effect. This overall body of evidence suggests that regular vigorous exercise should be
accorded a central place in the treatment of Parkinson's disease.
However, there was no evidence about regular intensive exercise of running in Parkinson's
disease. And most of the studies were not randomized with a control group.
In this study, the investigators are to investigate the effect of regular vigorous aerobic
exercise training of running on motor and non-motor symptoms, and quality-of-life of people
with Parkinson's disease.

Primary | Unified Parkinson's disease rating scale Overall Score | A comprehensive 50 question assessment of both motor and non-motor symptoms associated with Parkinson's. The MDS-UPDRS features sections that require independent completion by people affected by Parkinson's and their carers, and sections to be completed by the clinician. Part 1: non-motor experiences of daily living Part 2: motor experiences of daily living Part 3: motor examination Part 4: motor complications. Some sections of the UPDRS scale require multiple grades assigned to each extremity with a possible maximum of 199 points. A score of 199 on the UPDRS scale represents the worst (total disability) with a score of zero representing (no disability). |

Primary | Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire - 39 (PDQ39) Quality of Life Score | The PDQ39 is a 39-item self-reporting questionnaire which assess the Parkinson's disease associated health related quality over the last month. PDQ-39 There are 39 questions in the long form Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire, with 8 discrete scales: mobility (10 items) activities of daily living (6 items) emotional well-being (6 items) stigma (4 items) social support (3 items) cognitions (4 items) communication (3 items) bodily discomfort (3 items) Patients are asked to think about their health and general well-being and to consider how often in the last month they have experienced certain events (e.g. difficulty walking 100 yards). Patients are asked to indicate the frequency of each event by selecting one of 5 options (likert Scale): never/occasionally/sometimes/often/always or cannot do at all. |

Secondary | Endurance | The 6-min walk test (6 MWT) is a submaximal exercise test that entails measurement of distance walked over a span of 6 minutes. It is suitable in assessing endurance in patients with Parkinson's disease | Six months after finishing the trainingBaseline, one month after finishing the training, and six months after finishing the training | |
Secondary | Gait performance | Fastest walking speed: Duration for individual walks without assistance for 10 meters | Six months after finishing the training | |
Secondary | MiniBest Test Score | MiniBest test is an evaluation system focusing on the balance of patients with Parkinson's disease. The maximum score for the system is 28 whereas the minimum score is 0. The higher the score is, the better the patient's function. | Six months after finishing the training | |
Secondary | Mood | Symptoms related to anxiety and depression measured with Anxiety and depression Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). It is a commonly used tools in hospital settings to determine the level of depression and anxiety. There are 14 questions in total, with 7 items assessing level of depression whereas 7 for the level of anxiety. Each item on the questionnaire is scored from 0-3 and this means that a person can score between 0 and 21 for either anxiety or depression. The higher the score, the higher level of depression/ anxiety patient is experiencing.The HADS uses a scale and therefore the data returned from the HADS is ordinal. | Six months after finishing the training |
