Thrombopoietin

Kaushansky, Kenneth·1998·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

Although the cellular physiology of megakaryocyte and platelet production has been understood for nearly a decade, the humoral basis of this process has remained enigmatic until recently. “Thrombopoietin — At Last” heralded one editorial1 when the cloning of the chief regulator of megakaryocyte and platelet production was reported.24 The availability of the purified hormone has made possible new insights into many aspects of blood-cell development and provided a way to increase platelet production in patients with bone marrow failure. This review focuses on the physiology of thrombopoietin and megakaryocyte production, with a view to understanding how this information can . . .

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.
