Erythroblastosis Fetalis: Studies of Serum Bilirubin in Relation to Kernicterus

Hsia, David Yi-Yung, Allen, Fred H., Gellis, Sydney S., Diamond, Louis K.·1952·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

A MOST important complication of erythroblastosis fetalis is brain damage, commonly known as kernicterus,1 which has in the past affected about 15 per cent of liveborn infants with erythroblastosis. About 70 per cent of babies with kernicterus die within seven days of birth, and many of the remainder succumb during the first year to infectious diseases. Kernicterus is thus the most important cause of post-natal death in erythroblastosis fetalis. Babies with kernicterus who do not die have permanent neurologic sequelae, and constitute perhaps 10 per cent of all cases of cerebral palsy. Kernicterus has been proved to be preventable by . . .

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.
