Abstract

Despite the many innovations that have occurred in cancer treatment, the age-specific mortality for most adult tumors has remained stable during the past 30 years. There have been clinically significant improvements in the outcomes of young and middle-aged patients, yet the vast majority of cancer patients are more than 50 years of age, among whom we observe few improvements in clinical outcomes. Clearly, many of today's cytotoxic agents have been shown to be effective in-vitro and in animal model systems; however, few have proved efficacious in dramatically improving survival outcomes in adult cancer. There is now increasing evidence to suggest that the administration of cytotoxic agents, at the appropriate circadian phase, can significantly increase the therapeutic index of current cancer therapies.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Night-shift workers have a higher risk of developing cancer and poorer cancer prognosis.

    “Epidemiological studies have revealed that individuals who work night-shifts are at higher risk for developing cancer (Hansen, 2001; Kloog et al., 2009; Megdal et al., 2005; Schernhammer et al., 2006; Schernhammer et al., 2001; Viswanathan et al., 2007) or display poorer cancer prognosis (Lis et al., 2003).”

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.
