Detection of Chlamydia pneumoniae TWAR in Human Coronary Atherectomy Tissues
Abstract
Chlamydia pneumoniae TWAR has been associated with coronary heart disease by seroepidemiologic studies and direct detection of the organism in atheromatous lesions of coronary arteries and aorta. In this study, 38 fresh tissue specimens from patients with coronary artery lesions that were treated by directional coronary atherectomy were tested for C. pneumoniae. Twenty-three specimens were from patients with primary lesions and 15 were from patients with restenoses. C. pneumoniae was detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), immunocytochemical stain (ICC), or both in 20 of 38 specimens. Using cell identity markers, the organism was localized to macrophages. Ultrastructural evidence of the organism was found in the 2 specimens examined by transmission electron microscopy, which were also positive by both ICC and PCR. C. pneumoniae was found more frequently in tissues from restenoses than in primary lesions (P = .17). There was no relation between the frequency of detection of the organism and C. pneumoniae-specific antibody titers.

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.
