ABSTRACT
Resumen Objetivo: realizar una revisión sistemática sobre el efecto que tiene el ejercicio y la actividad física respecto a la calidad de vida en pacientes con enfermedad de Parkinson. Metodología: bajo los elementos de informe preferidos para revisiones sistemáticas y metaanálisis de la metodología PRISMA, se realizó una búsqueda bibliográfica utilizando las bases de datos de Scopus, Springer, Oxford académico. Se establecieron criterios de inclusión donde los documentos fueron filtrados, clasificados y seleccionados según su relación con el objeto de estudio y criterios de exclusión bajo los criterios establecidos para la estrategia PICOS. La revisión no se registró a priori en ninguna base de datos y no se publicó un protocolo de revisión. Se incluyeron dieciséis estudios en la revisión. Resultados: los datos evidencian que los factores que inciden en el efecto del ejercicio físico sobre la calidad de vida en pacientes con EP están relacionados a los bajos niveles de actividad física y la falta de ejercicio físico agudo. En cuanto a las intervenciones se resalta el ejercicio asesorado por fisioterapia, boxeo, taichí, aquaterapia y diferentes tipos de entrenamientos. Conclusión: se determina que el efecto del ejercicio y la actividad física en los pacientes con EP está relacionado con el bienestar que experimenta cada persona en su calidad de vida. A su vez, se presume que intervenciones de ejercicio y actividad física dentro de las 6 y 12 semanas mejora síntomas motores, cognitivos, y alteraría la actividad cerebral en personas con EP. Esta revisión puede guiar estudios futuros que apunten a llenar los vacíos existentes con respecto a los efectos del ejercicio y actividad física respecto a la calidad de vida en pacientes con enfermedad de Parkinson.
Abstract Objective: This study aimed to conduct a systematic review of the effects of exercise and physical activity on the quality of life in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Methodology: Under the preferred reporting elements for systematic reviews and meta-analyses of the PRISMA methodology, a literature review was conducted using the Scopus, Springer, and Oxford academic databases. Inclusion criteria were established where documents were filtered, classified, and selected according to their relation to the object of study, and exclusion criteria under the criteria established for the PICOS strategy. The review was not registered a priori in any database, and a review protocol was not published. Sixteen studies were included in the review. Results: The data show that the factors influencing the effects of physical exercise on the quality of life in PD patients are related to low levels of physical activity and lack of acute physical exercise. In terms of interventions, exercise advised by physiotherapy, boxing, Tai Chi, aquatherapy, and different types of training are highlighted. Conclusion: The effects of exercise and physical activity on PD patients are related to the well-being experienced by each person in their quality of life. In turn, exercise and physical activity interventions within 6 and 12 weeks are presumed to improve motor and cognitive symptoms and alter brain activity in people with PD. This review may guide future studies that aim to fill existing gaps regarding the effects of exercise and physical activity on the quality of life in people with Parkinson's disease.

ABSTRACT
There is growing evidence that physical exercise (PE) may boost cognitive performance. However, criteria regarding PE intensity, duration, and frequency are still being studied. We hypothesize that high PE intensities have effects on inhibitory control. For this reason, our aim was to study the effect of acute PE on IC in healthy young students of a bachelor's degree in physical education and exercise via a 20-minute indoor cycling session at 80-90% HRmax intensity. We devised an experimental group design (n = 9) relative to a control group (n = 10) with pre-and-post-test IC measures. A Stroop task (two conditions) was administered to undergraduate students (Mage = 23.3, SD = 1.6) of a bachelor's degree program in Physical Education and Sports Sciences from a public university in Colombia. The computed MANOVA did not show an interaction effect between the experimental task of Stroop A-B x measure x group. However, a main effect of reduced response time was obtained after PE in the experimental group. Other main effects were observed in the number of correct and incorrect trials in the Stroop-B condition. The experimental group showed fewer correct answers after PE, and the control group showed fewer errors. It is concluded that high-intensity PE confers favorable effects on inhibitory control.

The Spanish version of the 5-item Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS-5) is a brief measure of the general tendency to be attentive and aware of experiences in the present moment during daily life. The MAAS-5 has been used in different countries; however, an assessment of its cross-cultural measurement invariance (MI) has not been conducted. Therefore, the study aimed to evaluate the cross-cultural measurement invariance of the MAAS-5 in university students from two countries: Peru and Mexico. A total of 1144 university students from Peru (N = 822) and Mexico (N = 322) responded online to the Spanish version of the 5-item Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS-5). A multigroup confirmatory factor analysis was performed. Measurement invariance tests the hypothesis that the model behind a set of scores is comparable between groups. The results showed that the unidimensional structure of the MAAS-5 is the same between Peruvian and Mexican university students. Therefore, it is suggested that university students from both countries conceptualize the mindfulness in a similar way. As a result, the MAAS-5 can be used to compare differences between countries. No significant differences were observed in the MAAS-5 score between Peruvian and Mexican university students. The present study contributes to a better understanding of the psychometric properties of the MAAS-5 by presenting MI results in two Latin American countries. Implications of the findings are discussed, which will facilitate a more solid and reliable use of the MAAS-5 in future cross-cultural studies.

Resumen Objetivo. Explorar las diferencias entre los niveles de actividad física (AF) ‒ligero, moderado y vigoroso‒, en función a la Calidad de Vida Relacionada con la Salud (CvRS). Método. 269 participantes (M = 25.3, DE = 1.5) entre estudiantes, docentes y administrativos de una comunidad académica de Pereira, Colombia. La AF se evaluó con el International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) y la CvRS con el Cuestionario de Salud SF-36. Resultados. Quienes reportaron tener un nivel de AF moderado mostraron significativamente mejor vitalidad, salud mental y salud en general (p < 0.05). Mientras que aquellos con nivel de AF vigoroso promediaron más alto en salud general. Los niveles de AF moderado y vigoroso, en comparación con el ligero, presentaron mayor puntaje en la salud general y mental (p < 0.05). Conclusión. Este estudio aportó evidencia a favor de la hipótesis del vínculo entre AF y CvRS; además, reveló que aquellos con niveles de AF moderado y vigoroso presentan mejor CvRS en dimensiones de función social, vitalidad y salud general y mental. Futuros estudios deberían enfocarse en diferenciar los niveles de AF que mejor favorecen la CvRS, principalmente, en población escolar .
Abstract Objective. To explore the Physical Activity (PA) levels ‒Low, Medium and High‒ differences according to Health-Related Quality of Life (HRQL). Method. 269 participants (M = 25.3, SD = 1.5) between, students, teachers and administrators of an academic community of Pereira, Colombia. The PA was assessed with the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) and the HRQL through the SF-36. Results. Those who reported having a moderate PA level showed significantly best vitality, mental health outcomes, and overall health (p < 0.05). While those with vigorous PA level averaged higher in overall health. The moderate and vigorous PA levels, compared to the low level, showed a higher score in general health and mental health (p < 0.05). Conclusion. This study provides evidence in favor of the link between PA and HRQL hypothesis; in addition, those subjects who self-report moderate and vigorous PA levels showed better HRQL in the social function, vitality, general health, and mental health dimensions. Future studies should emphasize the different PA levels that will favor the HRQL, principally, in school population.

ABSTRACT
Physical exercise (PE) is associated with cognitive changes and brain function. However, it is required to clarify the effect of PE in different intensities, population groups conditions and the EF duration over different cognitive domains. Besides, no studies are known to have evaluated the contextual emotional recognition. Therefore, we studied the effect of acute PE of moderate intensities up to higher ones to the executive functions and the contextual emotional recognition. The participants were evaluated and classified in two experiments according to the IPAQ short form self-report and control measures. In both experiments, the groups were randomized, controlled, and exposed to one session of indoor cycling through intervals of high measure intensity (75-85% HRmax). Experiment 1 comprised young adults who were physically active (PA) and healthy, apparently (n = 54, M age = 20.7, SD = 2.5). Experiment 2 involved young adults who were physically inactive (IP) and healthy, apparently (n = 36, M age = 21.6, SD = 1.8). The duration was the only factor that varied: 45 min for PA and 30 min for PI. The executive functions were evaluated by the Stroop, TMT A/B, and verbal fluency, and the emotional recognition through a task that includes body and facial emotions in context, simultaneously. The analysis of factorial mixed ANOVA showed effects on the right choices of the indoor cycling groups in the PA, and the time response in PI. Also, other effects were observed in the controlled groups. TMT-A/B measures showed changes in the pre-test-post-test measures for both experiments. Verbal fluency performance favored the control group in both experiments. Meanwhile, the emotional recognition showed an effect of the PE in error-reduction and enhanced the scores in the right choices of body emotions. These results suggest that the EF with intensities favored cognitive processes such as inhibitory control and emotional recognition in context. We took into account the importance of high-complexity tasks design that avoid a ceiling effect. This study is the first on reporting a positive effect of PE over the emotional contextual recognition. Important clinical and educational implications are presented implications which highlight the modulatory role of EF with moderate to high intensities.
