Abstract

To the Editor: Inhibition of immune checkpoints with the use of antibodies targeting programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) or monoclonal antibodies against cytotoxic T-lymphocyte–associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4) has been used clinically in patients with various types of cancer. In the limited number of reported cases in which these antibodies have been used in patients who have undergone kidney transplantation,1 these agents have been associated with cell-mediated and antibody-mediated rejection (see Table S2 in the Supplementary Appendix, available with the full text of this letter at NEJM.org). We report on a patient who received a renal transplant from a living related donor. . . .

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.
