Epstein–Barr Virus Infection
Abstract
The Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) was discovered 36 years ago by electron microscopy of cells cultured from Burkitt's lymphoma tissue by Epstein, Achong, and Barr.1 Four years later, in 1968, EBV was shown to be the etiologic agent of heterophile-positive infectious mononucleosis.2 EBV DNA was detected in tissues from patients with nasopharyngeal carcinoma in 1970.3 In the 1980s, EBV was found to be associated with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and oral hairy leukoplakia in patients with the acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).4,5 Since then, EBV DNA has been found in tissues from other cancers, including T-cell lymphomas and Hodgkin's disease.6,7 EBV is . . .

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.
