18. Of course, the propagatorlike pinch contributions, which restore the gauge independence and finiteness, originate from vertex and box diagrams, but they are extracted before the loop integrations are carried out.

39. As a matter of fact, the idea of computing the Δρ in the context of the BFM in order to guarantee the desired WI for both leading and subleading contributions was first proposed in Ref. 5, but has not been carried out to date.

44. The graphs containing only gauge bosons have no mt dependence (they give in fact zero contributions to &Δ, since MW=MZ).
