Laparoscopic appearances of peritoneal endometriosis
Open accessAbstract
This article studies endometriosis diagnosed in patients undergoing laparoscopy for infertility and/or pain from 1982 to 1988. The diagnosis of endometriosis at laparoscopy increased from 42% in 1982 to 72% in 1988. The greatest change is in "subtle" lesions, which increased from 15% in 1986 to 65% in 1988. An increased awareness and histologic confirmation of the protean presentation of endometriosis is associated with a significant increase in the diagnosis of endometriosis at laparoscopy.

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.
