Hypoxic Sensitizers — Implications for Radiation Therapy
Abstract
THE proliferative capacity of human cells can be destroyed by ionizing radiation, and the rate of killing by radiation is 2.5 to three times higher in the presence of oxygen than under hypoxic conditions. Since solid tumors often have zones of necrosis and consequently are likely to contain hypoxic yet viable cells, this radiobiologic effect may have implications for cancer therapy. Radioresistant tumor cells that survive treatment can become reoxygenated and lead to a recurrence of the disease.A recent analysis of 2803 patients with carcinoma of the cervix treated with radiation therapy indicated that those with hemoglobin levels of . . .

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.
