Nutrition-related health disparities plague prisons in the United States. Unregulated and inadequate prison menus may contribute to noncommunicable chronic health conditions in this vulnerable population. The purpose of this research was to assess nutrition offerings provided by prison menus. Researchers requested the most current version of all master menus and associated nutrition analyses for gendered and age-centric (pediatric vs geriatric) menus. Menu and nutrient data were extracted and entered into a spreadsheet for analysis. Prisons serve gendered or nongendered menus to the general population, and 52.9% of prisons offer nongendered menus where males and females receive the same meals. This approach provides excess calories and saturated fat to females. Sodium was served in excess to both males and females. Fruit and vegetable servings on all gendered menus fell short of recommendations. The average prison menu inappropriately offers calories, sodium, and fruit and vegetable servings in a one-size-fits-all menu development method without considering gender, age, and physical activity. Interpretation and application of Dietary Guidelines for Americans are inconsistent. Nutrition guidelines recommending appropriate nutrients and food groups should be developed and available to corrections systems and dietitians. Current prison menu development practices yield inappropriate nutrition for prison populations.

DaviD rowe Reprints Manager and Advertising Director To open the Fall issue, Huffman and Song propose a novel index reconstitution methodology that significantly reduces the trading volume and trading costs for funds tracking the index, without hurting the style purity of the index. Their reconstitution methodology rebalances a small piece of the index every day, allowing index funds to use their daily cash f lows to rebalance. Bender, Pozen, and Tank analyze US listed IPOs, between 2010 and 2018, that were added to the Russell 1000 and the Russell 2000 Indexes and conclude that index funds could have generated excess returns by buying IPOs prior to their inclusion in the indexes. They develop a risk–return framework that could guide index portfolio managers in timing and sizing their IPO trades prior to their inclusion in indexes. Next, Meziani examines whether frontier markets are suitable to the average investor in terms of the size of their markets, liquidity, and risk-adjusted performance. He concludes that, for now, only their undeniable diversification benefits, an outcome that modern portfolio theory has taught us to highly value, tilt the odds in their favor. Blitz evaluates factor performance for 2010–2019 and finds that there appears to be a clear dichotomy in recent factor performance. While generally accepted factors struggled, various factors that are considered to be inferior or redundant remained effective. Kanuri looks at the risk and return characteristics of environmental, social and governance (ESG) exchange-traded funds (ETFs) since their inception. He finds that performance of equaland value-weighted ESG portfolios outperformed the US market in some periods and underperformed in others. However, over the entire period, IWV outperformed ESG portfolios and had higher absoluteand risk-adjusted performance. To complete this issue, Fang and Olteanu-Veerman examine the efficacies of factor strategies by applying well-known equity factors in China A. They demonstrate that the traditional price momentum factor did not work in China A, however, a sentiment factor based on return reversal and analyst information can better capture behavioral patterns of local investors.

There is a high prevalence of traumatic brain injury (TBI) in prisoners, but screening tools for identifying TBI in female prisoners are not readily available. Using a cross-sectional design, the psychometric properties of the Brain Injury Screening Index (BISI) were investigated in a closed United Kingdom female prison. Purposive sampling comprised 56 females. Assessment included clinical interview, the BISI, self-report measures of mood, and a battery of measures of cognitive functioning. Seven of the 10 clinical indicators on the BISI met test–retest reliability criteria. Two of the three BISI summary variables demonstrated correlations with questionnaires in the hypothesized directions; however, only two BISI variables were associated with cognitive functioning. Findings support further investigation into the validity and reliability of the BISI with a larger sample.

People leaving incarceration are at high risk of opioid-related overdose. Overdose fatalities are preventable with administration of naloxone. In response to this risk, overdose education and naloxone distribution (OEND) programs have been implemented in a handful of jails and prisons in the United States. We document the history, structure, and data from the San Francisco County Jail OEND program. During 4 years of operation, 637 people participated; 67% received naloxone upon release, of whom only 3.5% had been previously trained in community-based OEND programs. Of those who received naloxone, 32% reported reversing an overdose and 44% received refills from community-based programs after reentry. This confirms that implementation of OEND in criminal justice settings is feasible and reaches people who have not previously been trained as well as those willing to act as overdose responders.
