SOX10 and GATA3 in Adenoid Cystic Carcinoma and Polymorphous Adenocarcinoma.
Article in Head and neck pathology, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled it.
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
Differentiating between adenoid cystic carcinoma (AdCC) and polymorphous adenocarcinoma (PAC) can be difficult on small biopsies and cytologic specimens. As such, further characterization of their immunophenotype may aid in distinction. Previous studies have found AdCC to be SOX10+/GATA3 variable and PAC to be GATA3 negative. SOX10 expression in PAC has, as yet, not been established. We performed GATA3 and SOX10 immunohistochemistry on whole sections of 25 cases each of AdCC and PAC (including both classic PAC and the cribriform variant) to assess whether these markers are of diagnostic utility in distinguishing between these entities. SOX10 was found to be positive in 100% of PAC and AdCC whereas GATA 3 was immunoreactive in 45% of AdCCs and 20% of PAC. While this is the first series to compare SOX10 and GATA3 staining in these two tumor types, their frequent expression and similar staining patterns render them of limited value in discriminating between these neoplasms.
