abstract: 'BackgroundLeisure-time physical activity (LTPA) is an important

  contributor to total physical activity and the focus of many

  interventions promoting activity in high-income populations. Little is

  known about LTPA in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), and with expected declines

  in physical activity due to rapid urbanisation and lifestyle changes we

  aimed to assess the sociodemographic differences in the prevalence of

  LTPA in the adult populations of this region to identify potential

  barriers for equitable participation.MethodsA two-step individual

  participant data meta-analysis was conducted using data collected in SSA

  through 10 population health surveys that included the Global Physical

  Activity Questionnaire. For each sociodemographic characteristic, the

  pooled adjusted prevalence and risk ratios (RRs) for participation in

  LTPA were calculated using the random effects method. Between-study

  heterogeneity was explored through meta-regression analyses and tests

  for interaction.ResultsAcross the 10 populations (N =26,022), 18.9\%

  (95\%CI: 14.3, 24.1; I-2 =99.0\%) of adults (>= 18years) participated in

  LTPA. Men were more likely to participate in LTPA compared with women

  (RR for women: 0.43; 95\%CI: 0.32, 0.60; P <0.001; I-2 =97.5\%), while

  age was inversely associated with participation. Higher levels of

  education were associated with increased LTPA participation (RR: 1.30;

  95\%CI: 1.09, 1.55; P =0.004; I-2 =98.1\%), with those living in rural

  areas or self-employed less likely to participate in LTPA. These

  associations remained after adjusting for time spent physically active

  at work or through active travel.ConclusionsIn these populations,

  participation in LTPA was low, and strongly associated with sex, age,

  education, self-employment and urban residence. Identifying the

  potential barriers that reduce participation in these groups is

  necessary to enable equitable access to the health and social benefits

  associated with LTPA.'
