Adipose Dysfunction Caused by Obesity and Radiation Therapy Rewires the Prostate Stroma Toward Tumor Progression.
Article in Cells, 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
Obesity is associated with chronic adipose dysfunction characterized by oxidative stress, inflammation, senescence, and fibrosis, which can promote tumor progression. In prostate cancer, periprostatic adipose tissue may directly influence the prostate microenvironment. Radiation therapy is widely used in prostate cancer, but radiation-induced adipose dysfunction in obesity and its impact on the prostate microenvironment remain poorly understood. In the present study, we investigated the impact of obese and irradiated obese adipose microenvironments on prostate stromal remodeling, as well as the activation of prostate fibroblasts mediating prostate cancer progression. We utilized a high-fat diet obesity model with localized adipose irradiation in animal and in vitro studies using obese and irradiated obese adipocytes. Prostates from obese and irradiated obese mice exhibited epithelial hyperplasia, increased stromal activation markers, oxidative damage, and senescence. Interestingly, radiation maintained the obesity-induced pathological behavior in the prostate, rather than elevating it. The conditioned media from obese and irradiated obese adipocytes induced stromal activation markers, senescence, extracellular H
