“…Peak expiratory flow rate, a crude airflow measure to detect airway obstruction [98, was noted in this review to improve significantly following nonpharmacological interventions when studies were pooled, notably following general exercise‐based interventions. This response to exercise observed in PD is supported in healthy individuals and those with asthma [99–101. Notably, in the current review, two studies reporting more robust measures of airways obstruction, FEV1 and FEV1/FVC, identified no statistically significant findings following expiratory muscle strength training [65 or more general exercise‐based interventions [64.…”

Background and purpose Respiratory dysfunction in Parkinson’s disease (PD) is often an underdiagnosed and untreated impairment associated with the disease. Clinically, a reactive approach to respiratory morbidity is taken, rather than preventative approaches that address underlying impairment/s. This systematic review identifies the current evidence to support nonpharmacological interventions to improve respiratory impairments in individuals with PD. Methods The relevant literature was searched using a customised and systematic strategy. Randomised and nonrandomised control trials of nonpharmacological interventions targeting respiratory outcome measures in PD were included. Outcomes of interest were respiratory morbidity and mortality, respiratory muscle strength, spirometry measures, lung volumes, peak cough flow, and perception of dyspnoea. Results Nonpharmacological interventions included: functional training, generalised strength training, respiratory muscle strength training, aerobic exercise, qigong, yoga, breath stacking, incentive spirometry and singing. Methodological quality of included studies varied. Meta‐analyses of nonpharmacological interventions demonstrated significant effects for inspiratory muscle strength (mean difference [MD] 19.68; confidence interval [CI] 8.49, 30.87; z = 3.45; p = 0.0006; I2 = 2%), expiratory muscle strength (MD 18.97; CI 7.79, 30.14; z = 3.33; p = 0.0009; I2 = 23%) and peak expiratory flow (MD 72.21; CI 31.19, 113.24; z = 3.45; p = 0.0006; I2 = 0%). Best‐evidence synthesis identified level 1 evidence supporting nonpharmacological interventions for improving peak cough flow and perceived dyspnoea. No studies were identified reporting outcomes of respiratory rate, inspiration:expiration ratio or respiratory morbidity or mortality in PD. Conclusions Nonpharmacological interventions improved respiratory muscle strength and peak expiratory flow in PD. Additional trials targeting respiratory dysfunction and longitudinal studies examining the relationship between respiratory dysfunction and morbidity and mortality rates in PD are required.

Background: Aerobic exercise reduces body fat and improves weight control, increases high-density lipoprotein and Vo2 max (maximal oxygen consumption), decreases resting heart rate (RHR) and systolic blood pressure (BP), which in turn reduces rate pressure product (RPP). Although aerobic exercise improves cardiac fitness, the relative merits of different intensities of aerobic exercise in improving cardiac fitness are still uncertain. Aims and Objectives: The present study was conducted to know the effect of high-and low-intensity aerobic training on RPP. Materials and Methods: A total of 80 sedentary men (18-40 years) were randomized into two equal groups (high-intensity and low-intensity group). The high-(80% HR max) and low-intensity (50% HR max) groups underwent aerobic exercise training using bicycle ergometer (COSCO) at 900 kpm and 540 kpm, for 15 min/day and 30 min/day, respectively, 5 days a week, for a period of 12 weeks. RHR and BP of each subject were recorded using digital sphygmomanometer (ACCUMAM) before and after intervention. Results: After 12 weeks of aerobic training, both the exercise groups had improvement in cardiac fitness, but high-intensity group had a significant (P < 0.05) improvement in cardiac fitness, i.e., reduction in RPP (100.18-80.14) than low-intensity group (102-100.6). Conclusion: High-intensity aerobic exercise is effective in improving cardiac fitness.

“…Group A was given walking as aerobic exercise for 6 weeks. First 3weeks subjects did brisk walking for 30 mins with intensity of 11-13 0n Borg's scale (6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20) and next 3 weeks subjects walked for 30 mins with intensity of 13-15 on Borg's scale. Prior to walking subjects did 5 mins of warm up and cool down exercises.…”

Background: Cigarette smoking is the major cause of premature death. It accounts for 28% of all cardio vascular diseases and 40% of respiratory diseases as it is associated with impaired pulmonary function. Exercise is an effective and low cost of treatment which can promote good health of a smoker. Research indicates that individuals who maintain an exercise program are more likely to give up smoking than those who quit exercising. Methodology: 150 subjects were included in the study and divided into two groups Group A (resistance exercises) and Group B (Walking). The exercises protocol was given for six weeks. Pre post PEFR and VO2 max was calculated. Results: both the groups showed improvement post intervention (p<0.05) whereas resistance group showed better improvement than the walking group (p<0.05). Conclusion: Aerobic and Resistance exercises both showed significant improvement in PEFR and VO2 max in smokers, however the resistance exercises showed better improvement in the cardiovascular and pulmonary function. Key words: Smoking, Aerobic exercises, Resistance exercises, Theraband.
