Expression profile of small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) in penile cancer.
Article in Translational andrology and urology, 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
Background: The role of small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) has been investigated in the carcinogenesis of several malignancies; however, their function in penile cancer (PeCa) has not been reported. In this context, the study aimed to identify the expression profile of snoRNAs in the clinicopathological features of PeCa. Methods: This cross-sectional observational study examined the expression profile of snoRNAs in eight patients diagnosed with PeCa and four patients with phimosis (used as controls) using the GeneChip Array, correlating it with clinicopathological characteristics. Human papillomavirus (HPV) identification was performed using nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Results: Two hundred and seventy snoRNAs showed differential expression between the studied groups, with the majority being overexpressed. In the Venn diagram, SNORD78 and SNORD46 had their expression identified exclusively in samples with perineural invasion and lymph node metastasis, respectively. SNORD13F was the least expressed (fold change =-10.41), while SNORD43 was the most overexpressed (fold change =9.79). Conclusions: Despite the need to confirm the expression of these molecules in a larger number of samples and using another methodology, we suggest that these snoRNAs may serve as diagnostic, prognostic, and treatment biomarkers in PeCa.
