Scleroderma
Abstract
This account of the mechanisms of scleroderma highlights the genetic and molecular changes that cause the vascular changes and fibrosis in the disease. The role of autoantibodies, of which there are several in scleroderma, is unclear. The authors outline a stepwise process that begins with inflammation, reaches its zenith in fibrosis, and ends in atrophy.

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.
