PCPAm - A dataset of histopathological images of penile cancer for classification tasks.
Article in Data in brief, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Penile cancer has an incidence strongly linked to sociocultural factors, being more common in underdeveloped countries like Brazil, where it represents approximately 2% of cancers affecting men. This dataset was created to address the scarcity of publicly available resources for classifying histopathological images in penile cancer research. The images were collected in 2021 from tissue samples obtained through biopsies of patients undergoing treatment for penile cancer. After staining with Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E), the tissue samples were photographed using a Leica ICC50 HD camera attached to a bright-field microscope (Leica DM500). The dataset comprises 194 high-resolution images (2048 × 1536 pixels), categorized by magnification (40X and 100X) and pathological classification (Tumor or Non-Tumor). Metadata includes additional information such as histological grade and, for some images, HPV status. Although previous works have focused primarily on binary classification tasks, the dataset includes additional labels, such as histological grade and HPV (Human Papilloma Virus) presence, which provide opportunities for multi-label classification or other types of predictive modelling. These extended labels enhance the dataset's versatility for more complex tasks in medical image analysis. The dataset holds significant reuse potential for machine learning tasks beyond binary classification, allowing researchers to explore additional layers of analysis, such as HPV detection and histological grading. It can also be used for model benchmarking and comparative studies in cancer research, contributing to developing new diagnostic tools. The dataset and metadata are available for further research and model development.
