Abstract
Based on recent W-mass measurements, the electroweak theory is tested at non-trivial quantum correction level, i.e., beyond the Born approxi mation with alpha(M(Z) instead of alpha. It is shown that there are so me indications for non-Born type corrections. As an important part of such corrections, the non-decoupling top-quark effects are studied in detail.
