Hypoxia-Driven Mechanisms of Drug Resistance in Prostate Cancer.
Review in Cancers, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Prostate cancer is the most common non-cutaneous malignancy in men and is the second leading cause of male cancer-related mortality. Unlike many cancers, prostate cancer lacks clear genetic driver mutations, suggesting that factors in the tumor microenvironment contribute to the genesis and progression of this disease. Hypoxia, or a physiological state of low oxygen, is a universal characteristic of solid tumors that enhances disease progression and therapeutic resistance. Prostate cancer develops in a hypoxic microenvironment and primarily metastasizes to bone, where oxygen availability is similarly limited. Therefore, hypoxia is a major obstacle to the effective treatment of prostate cancer across all disease stages. Clinically, hypoxia is correlated with worse patient outcomes, largely because it drives resistance to the frontline therapies used to treat both primary and metastatic prostate cancer. Despite the established role of hypoxia in prostate cancer progression and drug resistance, it has not been successfully targeted therapeutically. Emerging evidence indicates that exposure to distinct temporal patterns of hypoxia (acute, cyclic, and chronic) elicits unique cellular adaptations that dictate tumor growth and survival. This review synthesizes current evidence regarding the role of hypoxia in promoting resistance to therapy in prostate cancer.
