Abstract

MANY forms of human cancer tend to occur in families.1 Environmental causes of familial cancer often cannot be identified, and, by exclusion, a hereditary mechanism is postulated on the basis of pedigree analysis. However, published chromosomal studies of families with cancer have not identified specific inherited karyotypic abnormalities.We shall describe a family with renal-cell carcinoma and a constitutional chromosomal translocation. The cancer arose in 10 members (five men and five women) of three consecutive generations. The cancers produced symptoms in the proband and six relatives and was diagnosed in three other persons by screening of asymptomatic family members. The . . .

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.
