Postmortem study of the frequency of gallstones in patients with cirrhosis of the liver
Open accessAbstract
The frequency of gallstones in cirrhotic and non-cirrhotic patients at necropsy has been determined from a retrospective survey of postmortem records over 15 years. The frequency of gallstones was found to be 29·4% in the cirrhotic group and 12·8% in the non-cirrhotic population. Whereas gallstones were twice as frequent in females than males in the general population the sex difference disappeared in cirrhotic patients. Gallstones increased in frequency with age in the general population but this phenomenon was not seen in the cirrhotic group. No one type of cirrhosis was more liable to be associated with gallstones at necropsy. In contrast to the general population bilirubin stones were more frequent in cirrhotics.

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.
