Amyloid Deposits and Amyloidosis: The β-Fibrilloses(First of Two Parts)

Glenner, George G.·1980·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

SINCE Cohen's review of amyloidosis was published in the Journal in 1967, there have been major advances in our understanding of what was less than a decade ago an untreatable, usually lethal disease complex of unknown nature, cause, and pathogenesis. Much of the mystery about the character of the "waxy, eosinophilic" tissue deposits, which Virchow believed in 1853 to be of polysaccharide composition and consequently designated as "amyloid" (starch-like or cellulose-like) has now yielded to investigations employing a wide variety of chemical and physical techniques. Once it was demonstrated that unique fibrillar components comprised over 90 per cent of amyloid . . .

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.
