THE UNITED STATES PHARMACOPEIAL CONVENTION
Abstract
To the Editor. —I was much interested in your editorial regarding the Pharmacopeial convention. I think you were quite right in making it "hot" but it seems to me that your wrath was directed in the wrong place. "The fault, dear Brutus, lies not in our stars but in ourselves." You will recall that every medical school should be officially represented at the Pharmacopeial convention by three representatives, and that the medical schools are ex officio members of the convention. A few of, but by no means all, the medical schools of the country had one representative, but I know of none that were represented by more. As a matter of fact, some of the medical schools, although they appointed three delegates, did not pay the expenses of any. The schools of pharmacy were somewhat better represented. The representation of the state medical societies was much worse. Only a few

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.
