Inflammation, the complement system and the diseases of aging
Abstract
Inflammation is characteristic of neurodegenerative diseases of aging. Neuropathological evidence of activated microglia and activated astrocytes in lesioned areas, combined with epidemiological evidence of sparing of Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD) and age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in long-term users of anti-inflammatory agents, indicates that inflammation is autodestructive of neurons. Locally produced autodestructive molecules include the membrane attack complex (MAC) of complement and oxygen-free radicals. Stimulation is provided by a variety of inflammatory cytokines. Agents which reduce the intensity of inflammation should have broad spectrum application in degenerative diseases of aging.

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.
