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
Sunburn during adolescence increases a person's lifetime skin cancer risk. This study examines the association between sports team participation and sunburn prevalence among U.S. high school students. Using cross-sectional data from the 2021 National Youth Risk Behavior Survey, we compared sunburn prevalence among students who participated in one or more sports teams during the past 12 months to those who did not. Nationwide, 64.4% of high school students experienced one or more sunburns during the past 12 months, and 49.1% had played on one or more sports teams during the past 12 months. Sports team participation was associated with higher sunburn prevalence overall (adjusted prevalence ratio [aPR], 1.2; 95% CI [1.2, 1.3]) and among female (aPR, 1.2; 95% CI [1.2, 1.3]) and male (aPR, 1.2; 95% CI [1.1, 1.3]) students. Sunburn prevalence is higher among student athletes than those who do not participate on sports teams. Evidence-based organizational policies and practices are available to help keep student athletes sun-safe while allowing them to enjoy the benefits of sports participation. Future research could examine the contexts in which high school students experience sunburn and why student athletes are at an increased risk.
