Vaginal Cancer after Maternal Treatment with Synthetic Estrogens
Abstract
VAGINAL adenocarcinoma in young women was recently reported by Herbst, Ulfelder and Poskanzer1 as being associated with stilbestrol therapy of the mother during pregnancy. In an accompanying editorial, Dr. Alexander D. Langmuir2 emphasized the scientific and social implications of this observation, and stated the need for confirmatory data. Our findings confirm the association and provide additional information on dose and time relations.The New York State Cancer Registry receives reports of all cancer diagnosed in New York State, exclusive of New York City. During the period 1950 through 1970, five adenocarcinomas of the vagina were reported in women under age . . .

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.
