The purpose of this study was to determine if individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD) who completed an 8-week, supervised PoleStriding exercise program would undergo significant improvements in cognitive skills, activities of daily living, motor function, and quality of life. The Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) and the Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire (PDQ-39) were used to measure functional independence. Six male volunteers (72.7+/-3.7 years of age) performed PoleStriding exercise three times per week for 37+/-3 minutes. Differences in the participants' pre- and post-training scores on the UPDRS and PDQ-39 were analyzed using the Wilcoxin Signed Ranks Test. A statistically significant improvement occurred in the UPDRS (P<0.026) and PDQ-39 (P<0.028) scores following the moderate-intensity exercise intervention. The results of this nonrandomized clinical trial indicate that an 8-week individualized PoleStriding exercise program increases perceived functional independence and quality of life in individuals with PD.
本研究的目的是确定完成一项为期8周的、有监督的撑杆大步走锻炼计划的帕金森病（PD）患者在认知技能、日常生活活动、运动功能和生活质量方面是否会有显著改善。统一帕金森病评定量表（UPDRS）和帕金森病问卷（PDQ-39）用于测量功能独立性。六名男性志愿者（年龄72.7±3.7岁）每周进行三次撑杆大步走锻炼，每次37±3分钟。使用威尔科克森符号秩检验分析参与者在UPDRS和PDQ-39上训练前和训练后的得分差异。中等强度运动干预后，UPDRS（P<0.026）和PDQ-39（P<0.028）得分出现了统计学上的显著改善。这项非随机临床试验的结果表明，为期8周的个性化撑杆大步走锻炼计划可提高PD患者的功能独立性和生活质量。
