Hormone Therapy Usage Is Associated With Adverse Cardiovascular Events in Prostate Cancer Patients of the All of Us Research Program Cohort.
Article in The Prostate, 2025. 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
backgroundHormone therapy (HT) has greatly improved overall survival for prostate cancer patients, but may also influence cardiovascular health in an already high-risk population.
methodsThis retrospective cohort study examined participants in the All of Us Research Program with prostate cancer, had no prior history of adverse cardiovascular events, and were either treated or not treated with HT. HT was defined as GnRH agonists, GnRH antagonists, abiraterone, androgen antagonists, or androgen receptor pathway inhibitors. We defined adverse cardiovascular event as myocardial infarctions, heart failure, or strokes. Time to adverse cardiovascular event was defined using longitudinal electronic health record data. We evaluated whether HT use affected the risk of adverse cardiovascular events using a Cox regression model adjusted for established cardiovascular risk factors.
resultsThe final cohort included 5156 participants. After adjustment for cardiovascular risk covariates, HT treatment was associated with increased risk of adverse cardiovascular event (HR: 1.22; 95% CI: 1.01-1.48; p = 0.03). In participants with pre-treatment dyslipidemia, HT usage was associated with increased risk of adverse cardiovascular events (HR: 1.52; 95% CI: 1.19-1.95; p < 0.001). In participants without pre-treatment dyslipidemia, no association was found (HR: 0.96; 95% CI: 0.71-1.30; p = 0.81).
conclusionsOur results show that HT-associated cardiovascular risk may be synergistically amplified by dyslipidemia. These results suggest that risk stratification by dyslipidemia status may improve cardiovascular outcomes for prostate cancer survivors.
