The Chromosomes in Human Cancer and Leukemia

Rowley, Janet D.·1981·JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association

Abstract

Dr Sandberg's book should be subtitled "An Encyclopedia" because that, in fact, is what it is. Virtually all of the information on the karyotype in human tumors reported by 1980, and some that was still in press, is included in this monograph. The 18 chapters cover every aspect of the chromosome pattern in the leukemias, lymphomas, and solid tumors. The comprehensive nature of this book can be measured by the 102 tables and 133 pages of references in this 750-page volume. The tables are a particularly valuable feature, since they usually include some clinical information, the karyotype, and the reference for each case. To Dr Sandberg's credit, the book is as current as humanly possible. Thus, even one year after publication it remains a prime source of information regarding the chromosome pattern in a particular human cancer. To refer to this book as an encyclopedia is not to imply that

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
