Serum PRL levels are significantly greater in females than in males when a large group of samples is examined, although with marked overlap.
“Although a marked degree of overlap was found, serum PRL levels were significantly greater in females than in males when a large group of samples was examined (6).”

Before treatment, serum PRL levels in the hypogonadal subjects were comparable to values found in premenopausal women.
“Before treatment, serum PRL levels in this group of hypogonadal subjects were comparable to the values found in premenopausal women (6).”

A quantitatively greater nocturnal episodic PRL release occurs during midcycle than during other phases of the menstrual cycle.
“Moreover, a quantitatively greater nocturnal episodic PRL release has been seen during midcycle than during other phases of the cycle (6).”

Meaningful assessment of the physiologic and pharmacologic events of PRL release cannot be established unless frequent sampling at shorter intervals over a period of at least several hours is obtained.
“In view of the recent demonstration of the episodic nature of PRL release (6, 10), meaningful assessment of the physiologic and pharmacologic events cannot be established unless frequent sampling at shorter intervals over a period of at least several hours is obtained.”

The detailed characterization of this assay in the authors' laboratory has been reported recently.
“The detailed characterization of this assay in our laboratory has been reported recently (6).”

The lack of an apparent elevation of PRL levels during the preovulatory phase of the cycle need not be inconsistent with the finding of an augmentation of PRL release by estrogen, because those studies were based on daily samples and subtle changes may have escaped a measurable effect.
“The lack of an apparent elevation of PRL levels during the preovulatory phase of the cycle (6, 12) need not be inconsistent with the present finding of an augmentation of PRL release by estrogen since these studies were based on daily samples and since subtle changes may have escaped a measurable effect.”

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.
