Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor Signaling in Prostate Cancer Therapy: A Review of Implications for Anti-androgen Treatment Strategies and Resistance.
Review in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Prostate cancer is a leading cause of cancer-related morbidity and mortality in men, frequently exhibiting resistance to conventional anti-androgen therapies. This review investigates the emerging significance of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) in prostate cancer, focusing on its role in modulating androgen receptor (AR) signaling and its potential as a therapeutic target. AhR, traditionally known for detoxifying harmful compounds, has been increasingly recognized for its dual capacity to either enhance or inhibit AR activity based on cellular context and specific coactivators. Furthermore, AhR influences tumor progression independently of AR by regulating genes involved in cell cycle control and apoptosis. This narrative review synthesizes current research on AhR's multifaceted roles in prostate cancer, evaluates its potential as a biomarker, and discusses the therapeutic implications of targeting AhR, particularly for hormone-refractory prostate cancer. Our findings underscore the necessity for personalized AhR-targeted therapies and advocate for continued clinical research to fully leverage AhR's therapeutic potential.
