Neurologic Manifestations of Bacterial Endocarditis
Abstract
Twenty-nine percent of patients (110 of 385) with bacterial endocarditis had neurologic involvement. In 60% (65 of 110 patients) the neurologic finding was either the chief complaint or one of the major presenting symptoms. Cerebrovascular lesions accounted for 50% (55 of 110) of the cases, and transient ischemic symptoms preceded the major stroke in 15 of the 55 (27%). Other major neurologic syndromes included toxic encephalopathy, meningitis, organic headache, mononeuritis, convulsions, and visual impairment. Occasionally, the initial diagnosis was not bacterial endocarditis but a primary neurologic illness or some other systemic disease. The mortality rate of 50% (55 of 110 patients) was 1.6 times greater than that expected in a general series of patients with endocarditis.

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.
