This study is looking at how exercise rehabilitation, specifically Progressive Resistance Training (PRT), affects thinking and memory (cognition) in people with Parkinson's disease (PD). Researchers also want to see if changes in deep sleep (slow wave sleep or SWS) can predict who will benefit most from exercise. You could be eligible if you have idiopathic PD, are between 45 and 100 years old, and are on stable medications. The study aims to see if exercise improves cognition, measured by a test called Stroop inhibition, after 12 weeks. The current recruitment status is unclear.

Study design

This is an interventional study planning to enroll 120 participants. Participants will be randomized (like flipping a coin) to different exercise groups.

What's involved

Participants in the PRT group will have supervised exercise sessions 3 times a week for 12 weeks. Those who don't respond well to PRT may switch to Endurance Training for another 12 weeks.

Compensation

Not stated in the trial record.

Follow-up

Cognition will be measured at the start of the study and again after twelve weeks.
