ON THE PREVALENCE OF ADRENOCORTICAL ADENOMAS IN AN AUTOPSY MATERIAL IN RELATION TO HYPERTENSION AND DIABETES
Abstract
Abstract A prospective study was performed on an autopsy material consisting of 739 consecutive cases over 20 years of age (391 females, 348 males) during a period of six months. The material included about 70% of the deaths in the city of Malmö (approximately 250,000 inhabitants). The adrenals were specially observed at autopsy for adenomas and hospital records were searched for hypertension and diabetes mellitus. In the total material the frequency of adrenocortical adenomas was 8.7%, which was considerably higher than previously reported figures. In patients with essential hypertension the adenoma frequency was 12.4% as against 7.9% in normotensives. This difference was not statistically significant. The adenoma frequency in men with secondary hypertension was remarkably high but the significance is not clear. In patients with hypertension the frequency of diabetes was 17.6% as compared to 9.0% in normotensives. This difference was statistically probably significant. In patients with diabetes the frequency of adrenocortical adenomas was 16.5%, in non‐diabetics 7.7%. The difference was probably significant.

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.
