“…These included one federal prison camp and eight state prison facilities in five named states and three regions (the Midwest, Northeast and Southeast). One project was prospective and set to be implemented in a prison that was not identified in the publication as state or federal (Nair et al , 2016). Another nine interventions or programs were implemented in the short-term context of city- and/or county-administered jails located in eight named states and one region (Southeast).…”

“…The interventions and programs described in the publications varied in duration, type and focus, ranging from a single one-hour education session (Lehma, 2001) to a multi-component physical activity and nutrition program that involved participants over 12 months (Johnson et al , 2018). Intervention components were administered or monitored by nurses, advanced practice nurses and nurse midwives (Fogel et al , 2015; Johnson et al , 2018; Lobato et al , 2005; McNeely et al , 2019; Barkauskas et al , 2002); social workers (Fogel et al , 2015; Barkauskas et al , 2002); research assistants and study staff (Clarke et al , 2013; White et al , 2002; Ramaswamy et al , 2017; Thornton et al , 2018; Nair et al , 2016); trained facilitators (Sumter et al , 2009); correctional facility staff (Lobato et al , 2005; Tenkku Lepper et al , 2018); students (Lehma, 2001; Shaikh et al , 2015); community members (Bryant and Thoringtom, 2004); and persons incarcerated in the facility (Thornton et al , 2018).…”

“…Of the 17 publications with measured outcomes, nearly all offered education or skills training as a primary component. Several articles included sample course outlines (Fogel et al , 2015; Ramaswamy et al , 2017; Huff and Sadler, 2002; Thornton et al , 2018; Nair et al , 2016) or handouts (Lehma, 2001; Bryant and Thoringtom, 2004). Researchers in two cases incorporated physical activity: indoor cycling (Nair et al , 2016) and walking (Johnson et al , 2018).…”

Purpose The USA outpaces most other countries in the world in the rates at which it incarcerates its citizens. The one million women held in US jails and prisons on any day in the USA face many physical health challenges, yet interventional work to address physical health in carceral settings is rare. This study’s purpose was to summarize the literature on programs and interventions implemented with women in US carceral settings (jail or prison) that primarily addressed a physical health issue or need. Design/methodology/approach A scoping review was conducted. The authors searched databases, reference lists, individual journals and websites for physical health program descriptions/evaluations and research studies, 2000–2020, that included women and were set in the USA. Findings The authors identified 19 articles and a range of problem areas, designs, settings and samples, interventions/programs, outcomes and uses of theory. The authors identified two cross-cutting themes: the carceral setting as opportunity and challenges of ethics and logistics. Research limitations/implications Much potential remains for researchers to have an impact on health disparities by addressing physical health needs of women during incarceration. Originality/value Interventional and programmatic work to address physical health needs of women during incarceration is sparse and diversely focused. This review uniquely summarizes the existing work in a small and overlooked but important area of research and usefully highlights gaps in that literature.

“…Of the total 300 articles, 36 were excluded because they were duplicated (Figure 1). Following the exclusion and inclusion criteria, the other reasons for the exclusion were: written in languages different than Spanish and English (n = 1); clearly not related to the topic (n = 134), such as the studies by Du et al [19], Kwon et al [20], or Velthuis et al [21]; related to cycle performance or to other variables assessed during cycling (n = 48), such as the evaluation of the methods of adjusting saddle height [22], the effects of tramadol on physical performance [23] or heat acclimation [24]; assessing only acute effects (n = 41), such as the studies by Barbado et al [25], Luszczyk et al [26], or Rendos et al [27]; related to pathologies (n = 25), such as rhabdomyolysis [28], open ankle fracture [29], or thigh compartment syndrome [30]; and without numerical data (n = 2), such as Nair et al [31] and Shafer [32]. Finally, 13 articles were included in this systematic review.…”

Health Benefits of Indoor Cycling: A Systematic Review

et al. 2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Background and Objectives: Indoor cycling is one of the most practiced activities in fitness centers for most people regardless of their physical conditioning level. Several studies have analyzed the effect of indoor cycling on several parameters related to health, such as maximal oxygen consumption, blood pressure, body composition, as well as biochemical markers such as HDL or LDL. However, no study has synthesized all health benefits associated with the indoor cycling practice in the form of a systematic review and established guidelines or recommendations. Therefore, the aim of this manuscript was to conduct a systematic review of published studies about the benefits of indoor cycling training and to establish recommendations for coaches, researchers, and practitioners. Materials and Methods: The PRISMA guidelines were followed to conduct the current systematic review. A systematic search was performed to retrieve relevant published articles until January 2019 using the following keywords: ‘indoor cycling’, ‘indoor bicycle’, and ‘spinning exercise’. Information about participants, intervention, comparisons, outcomes, and study design (PICOS) was extracted. Results: A total of 300 studies were initially identified. After the revision process, 13 of them were included. The total sample size of the studies was 372 (306 women). Results revealed that indoor cycling may improve aerobic capacity, blood pressure, lipid profile, and body composition. These enhancements may be achieved as standalone intervention or combined with other physical exercises or diet. Conclusions: The combination of indoor cycling and diet is recommended to improve the lipid profile, lose weight, and reduce blood pressure. Furthermore, indoor cycling alone may also enhance aerobic capacity. Given the lack of randomized controlled trials, these conclusions should be taken with caution.

Contexto: existen múltiples factores de riesgo modificables involucrados en la aparición de eventos cardiovasculares, como los niveles de lipoproteína de baja densidad elevados, lipoproteína de alta densidad disminuida, la hipertensión arterial, el hábito tabáquico, consumo de alcohol y el sedentarismo.Objetivo: es relacionar el índice de masa corporal con el perfil lipídico en los conductores de taxi, además conocer los hábitos y prácticas de vida relacionados.Sujetos y métodos: estudio observacional, transversal, epidemiológico en el que se evaluó 112 participantes, 89 (70,46%) hombres y 23 (20.53%) mujeres, con una edad entre 19 y 68 años de edad; se midió peso, talla, IMC, presión arterial y se determinó el perfil lipídico. Resultados: 32 individuos tienen peso normal, mientras que 60 tienen obesidad, 19 obesidad tipo 1 y 1 obesidad tipo 2.Conclusión: los conductores de taxi tienen alta prevalencia de obesidad. Los resultados de este estudio servirán de base para el diseño de intervenciones educativas centradas en la motivación y el autocuidado para prevenir el sobrepeso y predecir el riesgo de padecer un evento cardiovascular.
