Outline
To evaluate the efficacy of dance therapy for patients with dementia, and to provide evidence-based guidance for developing clinical intervention protocols.
A comprehensive search was conducted across Chinese and English databases including CNKI, Wanfang, PubMed, and Embase for randomized controlled trials on dance therapy in patients with dementia. The search covered the period from database inception to April 30, 2025. Meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.3 software.
Meta-analysis revealed that dance therapy improved the Mini-Mental State Examination score (MD=1.05, P<0.001), Montreal Cognitive Assessment score (MD=2.09, P<0.001), and Wechsler Logical Reasoning Test scores (MD=2.54, P<0.001). It also reduced Geriatric Depression Scale scores (SMD=-0.49, P<0.001) and activities of daily living scores (SMD=-0.59, P=0.04).
Current evidence suggests that dance therapy may improve cognitive function, reduce depression, and enhance activities of daily living in patients with dementia. Given the quality and quantity of the studies, further high-quality research is needed to substantiate these findings.
