DIET AND THE EPIDEMIOLOGY OF CORONARY HEART DISEASE
Abstract
Researches ranging from laboratory experiments to epidemiology on a world-wide basis have led to the hypothesis that the fat content of the habitual diets of populations has an important effect on the frequency of coronary heart disease in those populations. The general nature and some of the evidence for this hypothesis have been summarized several times in recent years,1but progress in this field manages to outdate each new résumé by the time it reaches print. Not that the previously cited facts or the hypothesis itself have been found to be erroneous; on the contrary, each new research adds detail, reduces areas of uncertainty, and, so far, provides further reason to believe that along the line of this hypothesis we may hope to find effective measures to reduce the incidence of coronary heart disease. As it now stands, the hypothesis may be stated simply as follows: Though many factors

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.
