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
Introduction: Taekwondo, a Korean martial art and Olympic sport since the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games, emphasizes kicking skills for optimal performance. The pushing kick (Miluh-chagi) targets the opponent's midsection or head and follows a linear path. It is a standard push kick in Taekwondo and can score points like other techniques. This study aimed to analyse the technical performance indicators during the execution of the pushing kick (lifecycles of ten kicks) by Taekwondo athletes, using an observational tool: the Observation System for Technical Performance Indicators-Chagi (OSTIP-C). Methods: This study used observational methods to assess motor competence in adolescent athletes during a pushing kick, analysing a total of 12 athletes (5 females, 7 males). The reliability and precision of scores were assessed across 120 kicking trials, consisting of ten execution lifecycles performed by each of the twelve taekwondo black belt athletes in the sample. Precision was measured with the coefficient of variation, and evaluator reliability with the intraclass correlation coefficient. Student's Results: The sample data were reliable, with strong intra- and inter-rater agreement. Significant differences appeared in foot take-off, knee up, and start leg flexion ( Discussion: The results show significant differences in the foot take-off, knee-up, and start-leg flexion phases, highlighting these early moments of the movement as the most variable and technically demanding. These phases appear to be critical for the coordination and efficiency of the kicking action.
