Diabetic Neuropathic Cachexia
Abstract
Six patients with diabetic neuropathy are reported who conform to a hitherto undescribed syndrome. The two outstanding symptoms, namely profound weight loss and severe pain, led to the admitting diagnosis of metastatic carcinoma or carcinomatous neuropathy in each case. The patients were all males, chiefly in the sixth decade of life, had bilateral symmetrical peripheral neuropathy, severe emotional disturbances, anorexia, impotence, mild diabetes, simultaneous onset of neuropathy and diabetes, absence of other specific diabetic complications and a uniformly spontaneous recovery in about one year. Because of the cachectic appearance, the term ‘diabetic neuropathic cachexia’ is suggested.

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.
