Role of prostate stem cells and treatment strategies in benign prostate hyperplasia.
Review in American journal of clinical and experimental urology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Benign prostate hyperplasia (BPH) is a progressive disease with a direct correlation between incidence and age. Since the treatment and management of BPH involve harmful side effects and decreased quality of life for the patient, the primary focus of research should be to find better and longer-lasting therapeutic options. The mechanisms regulating prostate stem cells in development can be exploited to decrease prostate growth. BPH is defined as the overgrowth of the prostate, and BPH is often diagnosed when lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) of urine storage or voiding symptoms cause patients to seek treatment. While multiple factors are involved in the hyperplastic growth of the stromal and epithelial compartments of the prostate, the clonal proliferation of stem cells is considered one of the main reasons for BPH initiation and regrowth of the prostate after therapies for BPH fail. Several theories explain possible reasons for the involvement of stem cells in the development, progression, and pathogenesis of BPH. The aim of the current review is to discuss current literature on the fundamentals of prostate development and the role of stem cells in BPH. This review examines the rationale for the hypothesis that unregulated stem cell properties can lead to BPH and therapeutic targeting of stem cells may reduce treatment-related side effects and prevent the regrowth of the prostate.
