BackgroundExercise therapy is recognized as a crucial method that can markedly improve outcomes for individuals with Parkinson's Disease. Research on exercise therapy and Parkinson's Disease is steadily increasing; however, a bibliometric analysis in this field is currently lacking. This study applies bibliometric methods to identify trends and hotspots in research related to Parkinson's Disease and exercise therapy.MethodsData collection comprised articles relevant to Parkinson's Disease and exercise therapy, which were sourced from the Web of Science core collection for the period between January 1, 2004, and December 31, 2024. The collected literature was subsequently analyzed using a suite of bibliometric tools, including Excel, VOSviewer, and CiteSpace. Additionally, text mining was carried out via Coremine to identify significant correlations among key terms within this research domain.ResultsThe volume of articles on Parkinson's Disease and exercise therapy has increased yearly, with a notable surge after 2019. The top three countries contributing to this volume are the United States, Italy, and China. The leading institutions in publication output are Radboud University Nijmegen, the University of Sydney, and Northwestern University. The 10 most frequent keywords include Parkinson's Disease, exercise, rehabilitation, people, gait, balance, quality of life, physical therapy, therapy, and motor. Keywords such as telemedicine, telehealth, neurodegeneration, telerehabilitation, and wearable sensors represent current hotspots in this area of research.ConclusionThis study utilizes bibliometric techniques to perform an objective, quantitative assessment of the literature pertaining to Parkinson's Disease and exercise therapy. It outlines the current research landscape, pinpoints emerging hotspots, and addresses prevailing challenges, thereby offering valuable insights to guide and improve the focus and efficacy of subsequent studies.
