Chemotherapy of Gastrointestinal Cancer
Abstract
IN this country, and, indeed, the world over, gastrointestinal cancer causes more deaths than cancer taking origin in any other organ system. Although management of these diseases has traditionally been considered the realm of the surgeon, there has not been any substantive improvement in surgical treatment since the middle of this century. Overall end results remain dismal, with five-year survival rates of less than 5 per cent for carcinomas of the esophagus, pancreas, liver and biliary tract, and only 12 per cent for carcinomas of the stomach.1 Even in the area of greatest surgical success, large-bowel cancer, well over half . . .

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.
