Non-carbohydrate Dietary Factors and Their Influence on Post-Exercise Glycogen Storage: a Review.
Review in Current nutrition reports, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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 optimization of post-exercise glycogen synthesis can improve endurance performance, delay fatigue in subsequent bouts, and accelerate recovery from exercise. High carbohydrate intakes (1.2 g/kg of body weight/h) are recommended in the first 4 h after exercise. However, athletes may struggle to consume carbohydrates at those levels. PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Thus, we aimed to determine whether the consumption of non-carbohydrate dietary factors (creatine, glutamine, caffeine, flavonoids, and alcohol) enhances post-exercise glycogen synthesis. RECENT
findingsTrained athletes may not realize the benefits of creatine loading on glycogen synthesis. The impacts of caffeine, glutamine, flavonoids, and alcohol on post-exercise glycogen synthesis are poorly understood. Other ergogenic benefits to exercise performance, however, have been reported for creatine, glutamine, caffeine, and flavonoids, which were beyond the scope of this review. Evidence in trained athletes is limited and inconclusive on the impact of these non-carbohydrate dietary factors on post-exercise glycogen synthesis.
