Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis

Trapnell, Bruce C., Whitsett, Jeffrey A., Nakata, Koh·2003·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

In acquired pulmonary alveolar proteinosis, lipids and proteins accumulate within the alveoli because alveolar macrophages cannot catabolize surfactants. Surprisingly, alveolar macrophages require granulocyte–macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) to perform this function. Autoantibodies against GM-CSF may cause pulmonary alveolar proteinosis.

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.
