Abstract

For several decades, various approaches have been used to replace bone lost to trauma and disease. In 1908, Lexer1 described attempts to reconstruct joints with newly amputated or cadaveric allografts. In more recent years, autografts2 and allografts3,4 have been used extensively to replace bone. Several natural or synthetic bone substitutes have also been used alone5–9 or in conjunction with demineralized bone10 or autologous bone as vascularized or free (nonvascularized) grafts.11,12 There have been numerous reports on the use of polypeptides13,14 or demineralized bone powder14,15 to stimulate the differentiation of mesenchymal tissue into bone. More recently, . . .

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.
