The Complement System of Man: (First of Four Parts)
Abstract
Activation, Control and Products of the Reaction SequenceAlthough it is not yet possible to inter-relate fully the diverse ingredients of the humoral portion of the inflammatory response, it is now feasible to indicate some of the discrete effector pathways and to identify a number of points of interaction between them. The effector pathway of the inflammatory response to be considered primarily in this review is the complement reaction sequence. Other plasma protein systems that must also be considered because of their interactions with the complement system include portions of the clotting sequence, the fibrinolytic system, and the kinin-generating sequence. Appreciation of these . . .

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.
