Infection in the Pathogenesis and Course of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Sethi, Sanjay, Murphy, Timothy F.·2008·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

New molecular, cellular, and immunologic techniques used to study host–pathogen interactions have led to a reexamination of the role of infection in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). There is now considerable evidence that infection plays a major role in the pathogenesis and clinical course of COPD. A vicious circle of infection and inflammation is thought to lead to exacerbations of the disease.

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.
