1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

The pleiotropic second-messenger cAMP plays a crucial role in mediating the effects of various hormones on metabolism. The major intracellular functions of cAMP are transduced by protein kinase A (PKA) and by exchange proteins directly activated by cAMP (EPACs). The latter act as guanine-nucleotide exchange factors for the RAS-like small G proteins Rap1 and Rap2. Although the role of PKA in regulating energy balance has been extensively studied, the impact of EPACs remains relatively enigmatic. This review summarizes recent genetic and pharmacological studies concerning EPAC involvement in glucose homeostasis and energy balance via the regulation of leptin and insulin signaling pathways. In addition, the development of small-molecule EPAC-specific modulators and their therapeutic potential for the treatment of diabetes and obesity are discussed.
