1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) remains the most aggressive primary brain tumour in adults, characterised by marked cellular heterogeneity, stem-like subpopulations, and profound resistance to standard therapies. The failure of conventional approaches underscores the need for novel immunotherapeutic strategies that can effectively overcome tumour immune evasion. Multiple therapeutic strategies have been explored to disrupt CD47 signalling in GBM, including monoclonal antibodies, soluble SIRPα fusion proteins, recombinant or peptide fragments derived from TSP-1, dual CD47/CD36 inhibitors, and antisense oligonucleotides. Overall, anti-CD47 therapy represents a promising but incomplete strategy in GBM treatment. Its success will likely depend on multimodal approaches integrating surgical, cytotoxic and immune-modulatory interventions that also target glioma stem-like populations. Rational combinations that address both immune suppression and tumour heterogeneity could transform CD47 inhibition from a transient lead into a viable therapeutic path for this intractable malignancy.
