Access to physical activity among people incarcerated: Jail staff perceptions of gender, work opportunities, and physical space.

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
backgroundThere has been a surge in female incarceration in the United States in the last decade, and research indicates that women who are incarcerated are among the most likely to experience poor health outcomes. Physical activity is known to improve health and research that has explored women's physical activity in incarcerated settings has been mostly conducted in prisons, with little research in jail populations.
objectivesThis project explores jail staff perceptions of differences in access to physical activity between women and men incarcerated in a US jail to identify potential administrative barriers to providing equitable access to physical activity for those incarcerated.
designA qualitative descriptive approach utilizing interviews was used.
methodsSemi-structured interviews focusing on perceptions of how incarcerated individuals at the coed jail participate in physical activity were conducted with 10 correctional staff at the jail. Interview data were analyzed using a thematic analysis approach in order to extract emergent and prominent themes.
resultsJail staff unanimously agreed on the value and importance of physical activity during incarceration, but expressed challenges related to providing access to physical activity. Those challenges were organized into three salient themes that have a large impact on access to physical activity while incarcerated in jail:
conclusionImportantly, the themes identified above are contextualized within a gendered organizations and managerial framework for corrections that increases administrative burdens and gender inequality and decreases attention on the health and well-being of those incarcerated as well as those that work within correctional settings.
