Asthma in Children: A Follow-up Study of 688 Patients after an Interval of Twenty Years

Rackemann, Francis M., Edwards, Mary C.·1952·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

CONTINUED studies of asthma in children enable us to evaluate a concept previously stated, that "When asthma begins before age 30, the cause is allergy unless proved otherwise; but when asthma begins after age 40, the cause is not allergy unless proved otherwise."1 A long-term follow-up study of asthma in children should result in a better understanding of clinical allergy.There are many questions to be answered. "How often do children outgrow their asthma?" and "What will happen to my child?" are the routine questions, but others are important also. Do the original cause and type of the asthma affect . . .

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.
