The authors aimed to provide an overview of the evidence on the effects of exercise in people with Alzheimer’s disease through a comprehensive review of the existing systematic reviews and meta-analyses. A literature search was performed in CINAHL, Cochrane Library, EMBASE, PubMed, SPORTDiscus, Scopus, and Web of Science databases according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. The AMSTAR-2-Tool was used for the quality assessment. Twenty-three reviews fulfilled the criteria. Most of the reviews investigated the effects of aerobic exercise on Alzheimer’s disease symptoms. The largest effects of exercise were seen in terms of improved cognition by multiple exercises. The majority of the reviews were rated as being of moderate quality and none were classified as having high quality. Exercise is an effective way to treat Alzheimer’s disease symptoms and has a low incidence of related adverse events. As most reviews were evaluated as low-moderate quality, caution is needed in the interpretation of the results.

In the discovery phase of drug development for Alzheimer’s disease it is useful to have animal models in which proof of principle can be obtained. Models of disease symptoms (memory impairment) and models of the disease pathology (lesions, amyloid-depositing models, tau-depositing models) are described and discussed. Moreover, these different types of models can be combined in an attempt to more faithfully replicate the disease condition. Although worms, flies, fish and dogs have been explored, the bulk of the research has focused on rodents, especially mice. Each of these approaches has limitations, but all have contributed to the development of agents designed to prevent or treat Alzheimer’s and other dementias.
