Complement-Induced Granulocyte Aggregation: An Unsuspected Mechanism of Disease
Abstract
The capacity of blood cells to aggregate, best exemplified by the response of platelets to vascular injury, is generally thought to be beneficial. However, if aggregation occurs inappropriately—that is, in a manner irrelevant to hemostasis — ischemic syndromes may result. The myocardial ischemia of Prinzmetal's angina pectoris, for example, may reflect platelet aggregation in coronary arteries. This article presents evidence that granulocytes as well as platelets can aggregate intravascularly, and that the resultant and previously unsuspected phenomenon of leukoembolization may underlie tissue damage in such diverse clinical situations as pulmonary dysfunction in hemodialyzed patients, sudden blindness with retinal infarction after . . .

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.
