Glucose-6-Phosphate Dehydrogenase Deficiency
Abstract
IT has been estimated that the red cells of more than 200 million people are deficient in the enzyme glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD). This X-linked hereditary deficiency was discovered more than 30 years ago as an outgrowth of studies of the unique sensitivity of some persons to the hemolytic action of drugs.1 Since that time much has been learned about the population genetics of G6PD deficiency and its effect on human health. More than 400 putative variants of the enzyme have been described, distinguished by their biochemical characteristics. However, some once-accepted concepts concerning the relation between G6PD deficiency and hemolysis have . . .

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.
