The Incidence of Adenocarcinoma in Columnar-Lined (Barrett's) Esophagus
Abstract
We evaluated the risk of adenocarcinoma developing in Barrett's esophagus (esophagus lined with columnar epithelium). Mayo Clinic records were reviewed, and all cases that met predefined histologic criteria for the diagnosis of Barrett's esophagus in 1979 or earlier were included. In 18 of 122 such cases, adenocarcinoma of the esophagus and Barrett's esophagus were diagnosed simultaneously. The status of the remaining 104 cases was determined after a mean interval of 8.5 years. During this time, adenocarcinoma of the esophagus developed in 2 patients, and 24 died from other causes. We conclude that although the incidence of esophageal adenocarcinoma is increased in patients with symptomatic Barrett's esophagus, it does not occur in the majority of such patients.

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.
