Persistent hypoplasia of the lung after repair of congenital diaphragmatic hernia.

Open access
Hislop, A, Reid, L·1976·Thorax

Abstract

Quantitative analysis has been used to assess growth in a lung from an infant aged 21/2 months in whom a diaphragmatic hernia was repaired at birth. The lungs had been abnormally small at birth but at 21/2 months were of normal volume. Alveoli had multiplied at the normal rate after birth but had not reached the number normal of age. The number per acinus was normal but the alveoli were increased in size, particularly in the left lung. The airway number, and thus alveolar, acinar, and arterial number, were all reduced in both lungs, the ipsilateral being most affected. The pulmonary blood vessels in both lungs showed an increased muscularity that did not correlate with lung volume or alveolar number, a feature that may have been present at birth. The degrees of hypoplasia in the two lungs were different at birth and this difference had been maintained. The effect of the disturbance to lung growth on the functioning of the lung is discussed.

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.
