Abstract

D8/17, a B cell alloantigen, and its occurrence with DR/DQ antigens was examined in 54 patients with rheumatic heart disease and matched North Indian controls. Thirty-four patients (62.9%) carried D8/17 as compared with a frequency of 12.5% in controls (chi 2 by Yates', 18.75; p less than 0.0001). A marginally increased frequency of human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DR3 (44.2% vs. 28.8%) and a significantly reduced frequency of HLA-DR2 (21.1% vs. 46.6%; p less than 0.005) was observed in patients as compared with controls. However, the most significant positive association was observed with HLA-DQw2 (63.4% in patients and 31.5% in controls; chi 2 by Yates', 9.85; p less than 0.005). The DQw2 association was significant only in the D8/17-positive patients. These observations suggest that the disease susceptibility gene in rheumatic heart disease may be nearer to the HLA-DQ locus than to the HLA-DR.

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.
