The purpose of this study is to investigate the cardiopulmonary-muscle linkage during the 2-minute walk test from the perspective of oxygen transport, to build exercise physiological baseline data, and to establish a method for evaluating muscle aerobic capacity using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) applicable to patients with neurological diseases such as Parkinson's disease.
Safety
Change in muscle oxygen saturation (SmO2) of the tibialis anterior and gastrocnemius measured by NIRS during the 2-minute walk test
1.Muscle aerobic capacity by NIRS during maximal isometric ankle dorsiflexion (oxygenated/deoxygenated hemoglobin dynamics) 2.Physical cost index (PCI) 3.Pulmonary function (VC, FEV1, FEV1%) 4.Grip strength (bilateral) 5.Maximum calf circumference (bilateral) 6.SPPB (Short Physical Performance Battery) 7.MMSE (cognitive screening) 8.Assessements For PD patients: H&Y staging, MDS-UPDRS (Parts I-IV), LEDD, Parkinson Fatigue Scale

Male and Female
Patients with Parkinson's disease: Patients with Parkinson's disease currently undergoing physiotherapy at Hyogo Prefectural Rehabilitation Nishi-Harima Hospital; those capable of walking and performing activities of daily living independently or with supervision; those who have provided written consent. Healthy elderly participants: Aged 65 years or older; with normal cognitive function (MMSE score of 24 or higher); independent in activities of daily living; and free from any cardiopulmonary, musculoskeletal, neuromuscular or malignant conditions that would impede a 2-minute walk test. Young healthy adults: Students at Takarazuka Medical University who have consented to participate in the study.
Individuals with other brain, musculoskeletal, cardiac, or respiratory conditions that affect walking / Individuals who cannot provide informed consent to participate in the study

The 2-minute walk test (2MWT) shows a high correlation with the 6-minute walk test (6MWT) and has been adopted as an exercise tolerance assessment tool in the NIH Toolbox. In this study, we will measure muscle oxygen saturation of the tibialis anterior and gastrocnemius using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) during the 2MWT in three groups (young healthy adults, elderly healthy adults, and Parkinson's disease patients, 30 subjects each, total 90). Physical cost index, pulmonary function (spirometry), grip strength, calf circumference, and SPPB (Short Physical Performance Battery) will also be assessed. NIRS measurement during maximal isometric ankle dorsiflexion will also be performed. The study aims to clarify the relationships among (i) endurance, (ii) muscle aerobic capacity, and (iii) respiratory function, and to establish a new method for skeletal muscle assessment.
