EFFECT OF SYMPATHECTOMY ON BLOOD PRESSURE IN HYPERTENSION: A Review of Thirteen Years' Experience at the Massachusetts General Hospital
Abstract
The difficulty of assessing the effectiveness of various forms of treatment for essential hypertension is due to several causes, of which the most important are the necessity for following each patient over a period of many years, the variability of the course of the disease in different patients and the lack of adequate statistics concerning the natural history of the disease in a series of patients large enough to include all possible variations in duration and severity. In addition to these fundamental sources of difficulty, the task of carrying out an accurate follow-up study is further complicated by the large number of clinical manifestations of the disease which must be taken into account and the absence of completely satisfactory methods for measuring the severity of the damage done to each of the organs affected. The net result of all these difficulties is reflected in the fact that various authors employ

“In the 1940s, surgical sympathectomy demonstrated dramatic improvement in BP control and accompanying reduction in cardiac size, improved renal function, and a decrease in the rate of cerebrovascular events before the availability of antihypertensive drugs.400”

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.
