The effect of specialized Hongquan martial arts training on the development of visual-motor integration in children.

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
Objective: This study examines the effects of different durations of Hongquan martial arts training on the development characteristics of visual-motor integration (VMI) abilities in children and the relevant influencing factors. Methods: A total of 59 children, aged 9-11 years, who were active practitioners of Hongquan martial arts were recruited from the Lu Jia Hongquan Cultural Heritage Base and the Xiaolong Martial Arts School in Xi'an. Additionally, 21 children of the same age were recruited from a Primary School in Hi-Tech District, Xi'an, as the normal control group. The subjects were divided into four groups based on their years of training: the no-training group, 1-year training group, 3 years training group, and 5+ years training group. The visual-motor integration ability, visual perception ability, action coordination ability, attention, and executive function of the subjects were tested using the Beery-Buktenica developmental test of visual-motor integration (VMI-6), Test of Visual Perception Skills 4th edition (TVPS-4), Motor coordination evaluation index system, Children Attention Test, Flanker task, more-odd shifting task, and 1-back task, respectively. Results: Compared to the no-training group, the one-year Hongquan martial arts practitioners showed significant improvement in working memory updating function ( Conclusion: Long-term Hongquan martial arts training for more than 5 years during the sensitive period for the development of VMI abilities can effectively enhance the visual-motor integration abilities of children.
