Abstract

A strain of Streptococcus pneumoniae, when inoculated intranasally in 2 microl of suspension into BALB/c mice preinfected with influenza virus, colonized first in the nose, and several days thereafter also colonized significantly in the trachea and lungs with purulent inflammation. Pneumoccocal colonization was also observed in the noses of normal mice after the same bacterial inoculation, but not apparently in the lower respiratory tract. These results suggest that pneumococcal infection may develop from the upper to the lower respiratory tract as a possible sequence preferentially in influenza virus-infected subjects.

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.
