Health effects of passive smoking
Open accessAbstract
Intrathoracic extramedullary haematopoiesis (EMH) is a rare entity that is usually asymptomatic.A 44 year old man with alpha-thalassaemia is described who developed dyspnoea and massive left sided haemothorax.The haemoglobin disorder was established by Hgb H staining and haemoglobin electrophoretic studies.The DNA analysis revealed it to be a case of double heterozygous terminal codon mutation with the genotype CS / T .Computed tomographic scanning and magnetic resonance imaging of the thorax showed multiple paravertebral masses which were found by thoracoscopic biopsy to be extramedullary haematopoiesis.Although no additional sclerosing pleurodesis or low dose radiation therapy was given, the lung expanded well and there has been no recurrence of haemothorax to date.

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.
