The role of cancer-associated fibroblasts in the tumour microenvironment of urinary system.
Review in Clinical and translational medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Urological tumours are a type of neoplasms that significantly jeopardise human life and wellbeing. Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), serving as the primary component of the stromal cellular milieu, form a diverse cellular cohort that exerts substantial influence on tumourigenesis and tumour progression. In this review, we summarised the literatures regarding the functions of CAFs in the urinary tumour microenvironment (TME). We primarily examined the multifaceted activities of CAFs in the TME of urological system tumours, including inhibiting tumour immunity, remodelling the extracellular matrix, promoting tumour growth, metastasis, drug resistance and their clinical applications. We also discussed potential future directions for leveraging artificial intelligence in CAFs research. KEY POINTS: The interaction of CAFs with various cell secretory factors in the TME of urological tumors. The application of CAFs in diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of urological tumors.
