Age as a Factor in the Distribution of Lower-Airway Conductance and in the Pathologic Anatomy of Obstructive Lung Disease
Abstract
Measurements with a retrograde catheter technic showed little change with age in the conductance of airways central to those of the twelfth to the fifteenth generation. Conductance of peripheral airways, on the other hand, rose sharply at about five years of age. Morphologic measurements suggested that changes in the linear dimension of peripheral airways were responsible for the increase observed. Lower-airway disease appeared to be a common factor in bronchiolitis, fibrocystic disease and bronchiectasis. The age of the patient may determine to a large extent the type of resulting anatomic disorder.

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.
