Exchange protein directly activated by cAMP (Epac) 1 plays an essential role in stress-induced exercise capacity by regulating PGC-1α and fatty acid metabolism in skeletal muscle.
Article in Pflugers Archiv : European journal of physiology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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 protein directly activated by cAMP (Epac) mediates cAMP-mediated cell signal independent of protein kinase A (PKA). Mice lacking Epac1 displayed metabolic defect suggesting possible functional involvement of skeletal muscle and exercise capacity. Epac1 was highly expressed, but not Epac 2, in the extensor digitorum longus (EDL) and soleus muscles. The exercise significantly increased protein expression of Epac 1 in EDL and soleus muscle of wild-type (WT) mice. A global proteomics and pathway analyses revealed that Epac 1 deficiency mainly affected "the energy production and utilization" process in the skeletal muscle. We have tested their forced treadmill exercise tolerance. Epac1
