Respiratory dysfunction is highly prevalent in people with Parkinson's disease and is a major contributor to morbidity and mortality. People with Parkinson's disease may experience respiratory dysfunction such as ineffective coughing and dyspnea. Complications, such as atelectasis and respiratory infections, significantly impact their self-care and quality of life. To mitigate its impact on people's lives, various respiratory rehabilitation programs have been developed and implemented. Many studies have examined this topic, yet respiratory rehabilitation programs vary significantly in structure and evaluated outcomes.</p><p><strong>Eligibility criteria: </strong>We considered studies focused on respiratory rehabilitation programs implemented to prevent or target one or more symptoms for adults (18 years and older) with Parkinson's disease, regardless of the disease stage.

Most programs integrated respiratory muscle strength training using devices, targeting people with Parkinson´s disease in Hoehn and Yahr scale stages 1-3. Speech-language pathologists, physiotherapists, and medical doctors were the health professionals responsible for delivering these programs in home-based or clinical settings. A broad spectrum of outcomes related to respiratory function was reported.

However, these exercises may not be suitable for all individuals, particularly women with chronic musculoskeletal conditions. Alternative exercises, such as yoga, Pilates, tai chi, Nordic walking, and dancing, have been suggested as safer and more enjoyable options, potentially increasing CR completion rates among women. However, the evidence on the effectiveness of alternative exercises for improving CR completion and other health outcomes for women remains limited.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Inclusion criteria: &lt;/strong&gt;This systematic review included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) evaluating the effects of alternative exercises in a CR program that recruited at least 50% women participants. Studies were eligible if they included women aged 18 years and over, diagnosed with cardiovascular disease (CVD) or at high risk of CVD, and participating in an exercise-based CR program. Exercise-based CR programs were defined as interventions for secondary prevention of CVD or for reducing CVD risk in high-risk patients.
