简要总结
The investigators propose to compare the effects of a 16-week specially designed yoga program to a power-based resistance training program on affect trait mindfulness, anxiety, depression, functionality, and quality of life. As secondary measures, we propose to compare the effects of these exercise programs on measures of executive function (EF), sleep, disease stage, motor symptoms, muscle quality, rigidity, strength, power, and mobility.
详细描述
Yoga has long been recognized as a therapeutic intervention for improving mindfulness and psychological well-being. Yoga represents a unique exercise activity that employs mindfulness-based practices and various balance postures to improve physical and mental health. Yoga is a gentle form of exercise that can be easily adapted to populations suffering from physical and mental limitations and has been shown to improve physical and psychological functioning in individuals with PD. Though research continues to support the positive psychological effects of yoga, it is unclear whether this is due to the unique mindfulness-rooted approach of yoga or general increases in physical activity.
Power-based resistance training has had promising results in the PD community. Improvements in balance, gait, and increases in leg muscle power and strength have been shown in PD patients after power training interventions. Although power training is a beneficial exercise modality in the treatment of motor symptoms, the effects of power training on nonmotor symptoms have yet to be established.

结局指标
主要结局
Parkinson's Disease Questionnaire (PDQ-39)
时间窗: 15 minutes
The PDQ-39 is one of the most widely used self-reported questionnaires designed to assess QoL in Parkinson's patients. It is composed of 39 items which are distributed over 8 separate scales including mobility, activities of daily living, emotional wellbeing, stigma, social support, cognition, communication, and bodily discomfort (Jenkinson et al., 1997). All items are answered on a 5-point Likert type scale (0= never, 1=occasionally, 2=sometimes, 3=often, 4=always). In addition, a summary index can be computed to assess the overall impact of PD on the responder.
Parkinson Anxiety Scale (PAS)
时间窗: 2 minutes
The Parkinson Anxiety Scale (PAS) is a frequently used observer or patient-rated anxiety measurement tool designed specifically for PD patients. The exam consists of three sub-scales for persistent anxiety (dimension A), episodic anxiety (dimension B), and avoidance behavior (dimension C), with 5, 4, and 3 items, respectively. All items are scored on a 5-point Likert type scale (0=not or never, 4=severe or almost always). A cut-off point of 14 is optimal to detect anxiety. Self-administered, the test takes approximately 2 minutes.
Beck Depression Inventory
时间窗: 5 minutes
The Beck Depression Inventory is a widely used self-report inventory to assess the severity of depressive symptoms in adults in the past two weeks. The BDI-II has been validated in patients with PD. It includes both cognitive and somatic symptoms of depression and consists of 21 items using a 4-point Likert scale. A maximum score is 63 with 0-13 indicating none or minimal range depression, 14-19 mild, 20-28 moderate, and 29-63 severe.
Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS)
时间窗: 5 minutes
The Mindful Attention Awareness Scale is a single-factor measure of trait mindfulness comprised of 15 items. The scale evaluates attentiveness and awareness of the present moment with higher scores indicating a greater degree of mindfulness trait. All questions are answered on a 6-point Likert scale with a range from 1 to 6. The total possible score is 90 points with a minimum score of 15
