Effect of Sequential Kicks on Programming Time and Movement Time in Taekwondo.
Article in Journal of human kinetics, 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
It is a critical tactic in combat sports to launch consecutive attacks that consist of two or more individual kicks strung together in time. The study aimed to assess how the number of round kicks would impact reaction time (RT) and movement time (MT). Twenty-eight experienced taekwondo athletes performed one of four different kick responses randomly in a simple RT paradigm: 1) clenched lead fist without a kick (task A); 2) round kick following task A (task B); 3) double kick following task B (task C); and 4) turning kick following task C (task D). Electromyography recordings from the thenar muscle and acceleration impulses from a triaxial accelerometer positioned at the heavy bag were used to determine premotor time and kick time, respectively. Repeated-measures ANOVA revealed that task B, task C, and task D significantly increased RTs (p < 0.001). The RT of task D was longer than that of task B and task C (p < 0.001). The movement time of the round kick in task C and task D was longer than in task B (p < 0.001). The movement time of the double kick in task D was longer than in task C (p = 0.003). Additional time is required to prepare for multi-kicks responses. An increased number of individual kicks to execute as a whole may slow down the kick movement.
