A network meta-analysis of 67 randomized controlled trials involving 2,642 patients with Parkinson's disease, published by Jianfeng Tang on figshare. The data compares the effects of 11 exercise modalities on motor and non-motor abilities, with results synthesized from searches across PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, and CNKI databases up to December 2025.
