Association of Levels of Physical Activity With Risk of Parkinson Disease: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Importance

The association between physical activity and the risk of Parkinson disease (PD) has been increasingly recognized. However, to our knowledge, a comprehensive assessment of the quantitative dose-response association between physical activity and PD risk has not been performed previously.

Objective

To quantify the dose-response association between physical activity and the risk of developing PD.

Data sources

PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science were systematically searched for peer-reviewed articles published through February 2018 reporting the association between physical activity and PD risk.

Study selection

Prospective studies that examined the association between physical activity and PD risk were included.
