Estrogen-receptor protein in intracranial meningiomas
Abstract
✓ The increased frequency of meningiomas in women compared with men, and the rapidly progressive course of these tumors in pregnant patients suggest that hormones may be involved in this disease. Tumor tissue from six patients with meningiomas was analyzed for estrogen-receptor protein. Two patients had tumors with very high concentrations of this protein, approaching that found in hormonally sensitive breast carcinoma. The biochemical and possible clinical significance of these findings is discussed.

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.
