Biological Activities of Steroids in Relation to Cancer
Open accessAbstract
The cancer chemotherapy program of the National Cancer Institute (Cancer Chemotherapy National Service Center, CCNSC) includes a study of steroids in the treatment of various cancers, especially of the breast and prostrate. Within the first 2 years of formal activity of the nation-wide program, it became evident that intensive review and evaluation would be necessary to clarify its scope and function. To achieve this a conference was held, the proceedings of which form the present volume. To the pediatrician the word "steroid" probably means first and foremost "adrenocortical steroid" and may indicate to him that this book will deal primarily with cortisone and related compounds.

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.
