Toxic Leukoencephalopathy

Filley, Christopher M., Kleinschmidt-DeMasters, B.K.·2001·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

Leukoencephalopathy is a structural alteration of cerebral white matter in which myelin suffers the most damage. Toxic leukoencephalopathy may be caused by exposure to a wide variety of agents, including cranial irradiation, therapeutic agents, drugs of abuse, and environmental toxins.1 Toxic leukoencephalopathy particularly involves white-matter tracts devoted to higher cerebral function, causing clinical features that range from inattention, forgetfulness, and changes in personality to dementia, coma, and death. This review focuses on white-matter damage caused by toxins as distinguished from that caused by disorders such as multiple sclerosis, cerebrovascular disease, and metabolic disturbances.2 Although the prevalence of toxic leukoencephalopathy is . . .

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.
