Innovative technology‐based interventions in Parkinson's disease: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Novel technology‐based interventions have the potential to improve motor symptoms and gait in Parkinson's disease (PD). Promising treatments include virtual‐reality (VR) training, robotic assistance, and biofeedback. Their effectiveness remains unclear, and thus, we conducted a Bayesian network meta‐analysis.
