Occupational and leisure-time physical activity and associated factors among shift-working registered nurses: A cross-sectional study.

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
Background: Lifestyle behaviors, including physical activity, may help to mitigate the chronic disease and mental health consequences of shift work in nurses at the individual level. The physical activity levels of shift-working nurses and factors that predict physical activity in this population are unclear. Objective: The primary aim of this study was to describe work and leisure-time physical activity behaviors in shift-working hospital nurses and determine behavioral, biological, or work-related factors that influence physical activity. Design: Observational; cross-sectional. Settings: Acute care hospital system. Participants: Current registered nurses ( Methods: Online validated questionnaires were used to assess work and leisure physical activity levels (International Physical Activity Questionnaire); Theory of Planned Behavior constructs (attitudes, subjective norms, perceived behavioral control, and intention) related to physical activity; and morningness-eveningness. Work-related characteristics were also assessed. Structural equation models were examined for the Theory of Planned Behavior constructs. Results: Shift-working nurses reported 227 (±265) minutes/week of leisure-time and 566 (±868) minutes/week of occupational moderate-to-vigorous physical activity. Attitude (standardized coefficient = 0.63; Conclusions: Our findings suggest that on average, shift-working registered nurses report meeting national physical activity guidelines for leisure and occupational physical activity; however, there is considerable interindividual variability. Theory of Planned Behavior constructs, especially attitude and intention, were significantly associated with leisure-time physical activity but not occupational physical activity, emphasizing the importance of targeting them in interventions to increase physical activity levels among shift-working nurses.
