Recovery from Rabies: A Case Report
Abstract
A 6-year-old boy developed clinical rabies 20 days after he was bitten on the left thumb by a bat and 2 days after he completed a 14-day course of duck embryo rabies vaccine. The diagnosis of rabies was supported by epidemiologic, clinical, and laboratory investigations. Rabies virus was isolated from the bat but not from the child. Serum, cerebrospinal fluid, and brain tissue antibodies against rabies rose to levels compatible with clinical rabies rather than vaccination. Rabies serum neutralization titers peaked at 1:63 000, 3 months after onset. Recovery from the clinical illness was complete 6 months after onset, with no demonstrable residua. Aggressive treatment to prevent hypoxia, intracranial hypertension, cardiac arrhythmias, seizures, and superinfection may have contributed to the patients' recovery.

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.
