Comparative Studies on Adrenal Cortical Function and Cortisol Metabolism in Healthy Adults and in Patients with Shock Due to Infection
Open accessAbstract
Secretory failure of the adrenal glands has continued to be implicated as a factor in the pathogenesis of peripheral circulatory collapse due to infection since the original reports of Waterhouse (1) and of Friderichsen (2). This association of adrenal function and circulatory failure has been cited in recent reviews (3-5). However, a deficit of adrenal secretory products or their urinary metabolites in peripheral collapse due to infection has not been reported. Investigations in our laboratory have shown that shock produced in dogs by endotoxins of gram-negative bacteria was accompanied by an elevation of the concentration of cortisol in the plasma, and the output of cortisol in adrenal venous blood rose abruptly immediately after the injection of

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.
