Isokinetic muscle function, dynamic balance, and injury risk in dominant and non-dominant lower extremities of adolescent taekwondo athletes.
Article in Frontiers in sports and active living, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Background: Adolescent Taekwondo athletes are exposed to distinct musculoskeletal demands, where imbalances in muscle function and deficiencies in dynamic balance may increase their risk of injury. Objective: This study aimed to assess the effects of Taekwondo training on isokinetic muscle function, dynamic balance, and injury risk in dominant and non-dominant lower limbs of adolescent athletes. Methods: Forty adolescent Taekwondo athletes ( Results: Significant differences in knee extensor strength were observed between dominant and non-dominant limbs at 60°/s ( Conclusion: These findings emphasize the critical need for bilateral neuromuscular training protocols to mitigate injury risks in adolescent Taekwondo athletes, highlighting the presence of muscle imbalances and reduced dynamic balance in this population.
