Cyclophosphamide Therapy of Severe Systemic Necrotizing Vasculitis

Fauci, Anthony S., Katz, Paul, Haynes, Barton F., Wolff, Sheldon M.·1979·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

We studied 17 patients with severe systemic necrotizing vasculitis over an 11-year-period. Sixteen patients were treated daily with cyclophosphamide (2 mg per kilogram per day), and one was treated with azathioprine (2 mg per kilogram per day). Before entering the study, all patients had active and progressive disease, even though 16 patients had been receiving corticosteroids that had caused severe and often incapacitating toxic side effects. Three patients died during the study. Complete and often dramatic remissions occurred in the surviving 14 patients, who were then placed on alternate-day corticosteroid treatment with continuation of cyclophosphamide. Corticosteroids were later discontinued in seven patients. The mean duration of remission was 22 months (range, two to 61). No patient showed recurrence of disease during treatment with cytotoxic agents.

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.
