Green space visits among Turkish and South Asian Surinamese women with a high cardiometabolic risk living in disadvantaged neighborhoods in the Netherlands: motives, means and prerequisites.

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
backgroundThe use of urban green spaces differs by social characteristics, including gender, ethnicity, and socioeconomic position. We examined motives, means and prerequisites to visit green space of marginalised populations with high cardiometabolic risk in the Netherlands, namely women with a Turkish or South Asian Surinamese background residing in disadvantaged neighbourhoods.
methodsWe conducted six focus group discussions in two Dutch cities. The study was performed in collaboration with social workers from the local communities with similar ethnic backgrounds as the participants. A thematic analysis was carried out.
resultsSixteen Turkish women and 30 South Asian Surinamese women participated. Motives, means and prerequisites that emerged covered four themes: social, personal, environmental characteristics and undertaking activities. Socializing was an important motive to visit green space. Personal motives mainly consisted of positive effects on mental and physical well-being. Activities undertaken in green space were often a means to socialize or improve well-being. Many environmental factors, including safety, aesthetics, and (sanitary) facilities, influenced motivation to visit green space. Except for environmental characteristics, motives, means and prerequisites largely overlapped between ethnic groups. There were notable interactions between the themes.
conclusionMotives, means and prerequisites to visit green space of women with a Turkish or South Asian Surinamese background who live in disadvantaged neighborhoods span multiple interacting themes. Future studies examining the relationship between green space and health should consider interactions between motives, means, prerequisites and ethnicity. The possibility of expanding the multifunctionality of green spaces to provide marginalized populations with more equitable access and activities should be further explored.
