All-terrain vehicle injuries in children and adolescents.
Article in Canadian family physician Medecin de famille canadien, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
questionI know that all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) are commonly used for recreational purposes, and that recently an adolescent was injured while driving one. What are the dangers of ATV use among adolescents, and what are some preventative measures to recommend to families in my clinic to reduce ATV-related injuries in children? ANSWER: There is a disproportionately high rate of ATV accidents in children compared with adults, and the safety of ATVs has become a public health concern in recent years because of their association with increased pediatric morbidity and mortality. Children account for more than one-third of ATV-related hospitalizations and they are at an increased risk of head injuries compared with adults. Orthopedic injuries are the most common injuries sustained by children as a result of ATV use. The most common causes of injury include inexperience, inadequate physical size and muscle strength to handle the vehicle, not wearing a helmet, poor judgment, loss of control, immature motor and cognitive development, and (in older children) substance use. Medical providers should recommend ATVs be limited to those over 16 years of age and that any adolescent using an ATV wears an appropriate helmet.
