Hemangiomas in Children

Drolet, Beth A., Esterly, Nancy B., Frieden, Ilona J.·1999·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

Hemangiomas are the most common soft-tissue tumors of infancy, occurring in approximately 5 to 10 percent of one-year-old children. Despite the frequency of these tumors, their pathogenesis is not completely understood, and the best approach to their management remains controversial. Research on angiogenesis, an improved knowledge of the classification of the vascular anomalies of infancy, advances in imaging techniques, recently identified complications, and new therapeutic approaches, such as treatment with interferon and lasers, have altered our understanding of this common childhood problem and the way we approach it.The term hemangioma has traditionally been applied to a variety of vascular . . .

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.
