Involvement of leukocytes and cytokines in the ovulatory process and corpus luteum function
Abstract
The role of leukocytes and cytokines in ovarian physiology is now established, although the function of each cell type and cytokine remains to be determined in detail. Current knowledge of these effects on follicle development, ovulation, luteinization and luteotrophic process and luteolysis is reviewed. It is possible that further research will help to unravel some of the clinical mysteries in ovarian function, including polycystic ovary syndrome, premature menopause, ovulatory disorders, and luteal phase defect. Furthermore, the increasing use of cytokines and their antagonists in clinical practice may have significant effects upon reproductive function.

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.
