Von Recklinghausen Neurofibromatosis

Riccardi, Vincent M.·1981·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

Neurofibromatosis is of great importance not only to the thousands of affected patients and their physicians but also to researchers concerned with genetics, melanin synthesis, neural-crest embryology, cell-cell interactions, cancer, and other disciplines. However, only recently has neurofibromatosis been the subject of widespread, systematic studies of its nature and pathogenesis.1 Neurofibromatosis is a relatively common autosomal dominant trait2 with a frequency of about 1 in 3000; it is inexorably progressive, but with markedly variable expressivity. Although its commonness and wide range of expression may provide impetus for study, they are also the bane of any scientific approach to the disease. . . .

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.
