Influence of park visitation on physical activity, well-being and social connectedness among Australians during COVID-19.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
This cross-sectional study examined associations of park visitation with physical activity (PA), well-being, and social connectedness among 1089 participants during the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic. In August 2020, adolescents and adults in Australia self-reported demographics, usual park visitation, frequency and duration of park visits, PA, well-being and social connectedness. Multilevel linear regression models examined associations of park visitation with well-being and social connectedness. Multilevel mixed-effects negative binomial regression models examined associations between visitation and PA. Compared to not visiting a park, visitation was positively associated with well-being (B = 3.92, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.24, 6.60) and days/week performing PA for 30 min (B = 1.24, 95% CI = 1.11, 1.39) per day and negatively associated with social connectedness (B = -3.75, 95% CI = -7.11, -0.39). Compared to visiting a park less than once/week, visiting once/week was positively associated with well-being (B = 3.90, 95% CI = 0.53, 7.21). Visiting more than once/week was positively associated with days/week performing PA for 30 min (B = 1.37, 95% CI = 1.21, 1.58) and 60 min (B = 1.34, 95% CI = 1.09, 1.64) per day and with well-being (B = 4.19, 95% CI = 0.90, 7.49). Duration of park visits was positively associated with days/week performing PA for 30 min (B = 1.09, 95% CI = 1.04, 1.13) and 60 min (B = 1.09, 95% CI = 1.02, 1.17) per day. Our findings highlight the role of parks in positively influencing health-related outcomes and the 'dosage' of park use needed to attain health benefits.
