Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

Primary diffuse large B-cell lymphoma of the bone (PB-DLBCL) is a rare event and is a diagnosis by exclusion of secondary bone involvement. Here we review the literature regarding PB-DLBCL and give essentials for this diagnosis. Furthermore, we give an overview of potential precursors and discuss chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO) as a potential risk factor for PB-DLBCL development in the young.
