About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Parkinson Disease

Eligibility Criteria

undefined - undefined (Child, Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Diagnosis with idiopathic PD and rated 1-2 on the Hoehn and Yahr Scale.
  • No type of dementia as assessed by the mini-mental state examination.
  • Able to stand for 2 min without assistance.
  • Able to walk 10 m without assistance.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Individuals were excluded if they suffered a neurological disease other than PD, if the subject has an implant of any kind in the head (e.g., stent, clipped aneurysm, embolized arteriovenous malformation, implantable shunt - Hakim valve) or if they did not meet the eligibility criteria.

Arm Label

Intervention aerobic (IAER)

Intervention photobiomodulation (IPBM)

Intervention aerobic and photobiomodulation (IAER+PBM9

Control (CO)

Arm Description

Patients assigned to the IAER participated in fourty-eigth aerobic exercise therapy sessions over the course of six months.

Patients assigned to the IPBM participated in fourty-eigth transcraneal photobiomodulation (PBM) theraphy sessions, using a therapeutic laser console, over the course of six months.

Patients assigned to the IAER+PBM participated in the aerobic exercise therapy and the PBM one at the same time, during six months.

Patients assigned to the control (CO) did not participated in any kind of therapy, they just followed their usual weekly routine during six months

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

MDS-UPDRS
The motor portion of the Movement Disorder Society-Unified Parkinson´s (MDS-UPDRS, the minimum and maximum values are 0 and 72, respectively and the higher score, the worse patient condition)

Secondary Outcome Measures

DASH
The disabilities of the arm, shoulder and hand (DASH, the minimun and maximum values are 0 and 190, respectively and the higher score, the worse patient condition)
Static posturography
The centre of pressure (CoP) parameters (these CoP parameters; Length, in mm, Area in mm2 and Speed, Xspeed and Yspeed in m/s will be combined to report the static posturography)
TMWT
10 meters walking test (speed in seconds)
TUG
Time up Go Test (speed in seconds)
Grip strength
Grip strength in kg

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The aim of the present study was to assess the effects of a combined therapy of aerobic exercise and transcranial photobiomodulation upon the cardinal motor sympomts of Parkinson´s disease of a group of Parkinson´s disease patients. It was hypothesized that aerobic exercise and transcranial photobiomodulation would yield significant benefits in the cardinal motor sympomts of the illness.
