Effects of motor-cognitive training on dual-task performance in people with Parkinson's disease: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT: Motor-cognitive training in Parkinson's disease (PD) can positively affect gait and balance, but whether motor-cognitive (dual-task) performance improves is unknown. This meta-analysis, therefore, aimed to establish the current evidence on the effects of motor-cognitive training on dual-task performance in PD. Systematic searches were conducted in five databases and 11 studies with a total of 597 people (mean age: 68.9 years; mean PD duration: 6.8 years) were included. We found a mean difference in dual-task gait speed (0.12 m/s (95% CI 0.08, 0.17)), dual-task cadence (2.91 steps/min (95% CI 0.08, 5.73)), dual-task stride length (10.12 cm (95% CI 4.86, 15.38)) and dual-task cost on gait speed (- 8.75% (95% CI - 14.57, - 2.92)) in favor of motor-cognitive training compared to controls. The GRADE analysis revealed that the findings were based on high certainty evidence. Thus, we can for the first time systematically show that people with PD can improve their dual-task ability through motor-cognitive training.

Project description:IntroductionThe use of dual-task model such as dual-task gait has been extensively studied to assess cognitive-motor performance among older adults. However, space restriction and safety factor limit its applications in remote assessment. To address the gap, we propose a video processing-based approach to remotely quantify cognitive-motor performance using a 20-s repetitive elbow flexion-extension test with dual-task condition, called video-based motoric-cognitive meter (MCM).MethodsEighteen older participants (age: 78.6 ± 6.5 years) who were clinically diagnosed as having either mild cognitive impairment or dementia were included in this study. Participants were asked to perform 20-s repetitive elbow flexion-extension exercise with a memory exercise by counting backward from a two-digit number. During the test, all movements of the forearm were recorded by a video camera. As a comparator, a validated wrist-worn sensor was used, which allowed quantifying upper extremity kinematics.ResultsThe results showed a good agreement (r ≥ 0.530 and ICC2,1 ≥ 0.681) between the derived dual-task upper extremity motor performance from the proposed video-based MCM and a clinically validated sensor-based MCM. We also observed moderate correlations (r ≥ 0.496) between some measures of video-based MCM (flexion time, extension time, and flexion-extension time) and clinical cognitive scale (Mini-Mental State Examination [MMSE]). Additionally, some measures of dual-task upper extremity motor performance (speed, flexion time, extension time, and flexion-extension time) were associated with dual-task gait speed (r ≥ 0.557), which has been found to be correlated with cognitive impairment. Lastly, the selected dual-task motor performance metric (flexion time) was sensitive to predict MMSE scores in linear regression analyses with statistical significance (adjusted R2 = 0.306, p = 0.025).ConclusionThis study proposes a video processing-based approach to analyze dual-task upper extremity motor performance from a simple and convenient upper extremity function test. The results indicate concurrent validity of the proposed video-based MCM compared with the sensor-based MCM, and associations between dual-task upper extremity motor performance and clinically validated cognitive markers (MMSE scores and dual-task gait). Future studies are warranted to explore sensitivity of this solution to promote remote assessment of cognitive-motor performance among older adults in telehealth applications.
