Chronic progressive myelopathy associated with elevated antibodies to human T‐lymphotropic virus type I and adult T‐cell leukemialike cells
Abstract
Six adult patients had a chronic progressive myelopathy that possessed the following features: (1) high antibody titers to human T‐lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV‐I) in serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF); (2) predominantly upper motor neuron disorder, symmetrical, with mild sensory and bladder disturbances; and (3) presence of adult T‐cell leukemia–like cells in both peripheral blood and CSF. We refer to this entity as HTLV‐I–associated myelopathy (HAM). Electrophoretic studies of immunoglobulin G in CSF using Western blot analysis characteristically demonstrated p24 and p32 bands. Rates of intra‐blood–brain barrier synthesis were determined and found increased in the patients with HAM. Corticosteroid treatment produced clinical improvement in all of 4 patients. A retrospective survey of CSF samples was carried out in 287 patients with neurological disorders, and 6 additional patients with HAM were identified.

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.
