Role of guanine-nucleotide exchange factor Epac in renal physiology and pathophysiology.
Review in American journal of physiology. Renal physiology, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It has been retracted, and should not be counted. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Exchange proteins directly activated by cAMP [Epac(s)] were discovered more than a decade ago as new sensors for the second messenger cAMP. The Epac family members, including Epac1 and Epac2, are guanine nucleotide exchange factors for the Ras-like small GTPases Rap1 and Rap2, and they function independently of protein kinase A. Given the importance of cAMP in kidney homeostasis, several molecular and cellular studies using specific Epac agonists have analyzed the role and regulation of Epac proteins in renal physiology and pathophysiology. The specificity of the functions of Epac proteins may depend upon their expression and localization in the kidney as well as their abundance in the microcellular environment. This review discusses recent literature data concerning the involvement of Epac in renal tubular transport physiology and renal glomerular cells where various signaling pathways are known to be operative. In addition, the potential role of Epac in kidney disorders, such as diabetic kidney disease and ischemic kidney injury, is discussed.
