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

Signal regulatory proteins (SIRPs) are membrane receptors on immune cells that control immune homeostasis and inflammation. Although SIRP family members share homologous extracellular domains, they differ in intracellular motifs and function: SIRPα transduces inhibitory signals, SIRPβ associates with DAP12 to trigger activation, and SIRPγ primarily modulates adhesion and T cell responses. This review compares the structure, ligand interactions, and signaling mechanisms of SIRPα, SIRPβ, and SIRPγ, summarizes their roles in cancer, autoimmunity and neurodegeneration, and surveys therapeutic strategies that target the CD47-SIRPα axis. We highlight current clinical progress, common toxicities, and open questions that must be addressed to advance SIRP-targeted therapies.
