Anaerobic Infection of the Paranasal Sinuses

Frederick, Joseph, Braude, Abraham I.·1974·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

Abstract Heavy growth of anaerobic bacteria in pure culture was obtained from 23 of 83 specimens aseptically removed from chronically infected paranasal sinuses during external frontoethmodectomy or radical antrotomy via the canine fossa. Since these procedures avoid nasal contamination, the data indicate that anaerobic bacteria are an important cause of chronic sinusitis. (N Engl J Med 290:135–137, 1974)

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.
