IN HIS clinical and genetic study of male alcoholics Amark presented the risks for psychiatric diseases in the probands' relatives.1When compared to general population figures the families of the alcoholic probands showed no increase in schizophrenia, manic depressive disease, general paresis, senile and presenile psychoses, epilepsy, or oligophrenia. Psychogenic psychoses were, however, more frequently found in the relatives of alcoholics than in the general population. Although psychogenic psychoses contain three different categories, depressive syndromes, disturbances of consciousness, and paranoid syndromes, the most common form of illness in this group is psychogenic depression. Psychogenic depressions fit into the general framework of affective disorder. Among the first-degree relatives of the alcoholic probands psychopathy was also increased when compared to general population figures. Finally, brothers and fathers of male alcoholics showed considerably more alcoholism than would be expected although female first-degree relatives (sisters and mothers) did not show a remarkably

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.
