Nonmelanoma Cancers of the Skin
Abstract
BASAL-CELL and squamous-cell cancers of the skin are the most frequent malignant conditions in the white population. About 600,000 new cases are detected each year in the United States.1 Fortunately, only a small proportion lead to death. Nonmelanoma cancers are associated with substantial morbidity, including loss of function and disfigurement, and their treatment is costly. Early detection can reduce morbidity and cost.We will review the epidemiology, recognition, treatment, and prevention of basal-cell and squamous-cell carcinomas, which together account for most nonmelanoma skin cancers (we exclude tumors of the mucous membranes). We shall emphasize risk factors for the development 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.
