PRIMER ON THE RHEUMATIC DISEASES: PART I

·1959·Journal of the American Medical Association

Abstract

This is the fifth edition of the Primer on the Rheumatic Diseases, previous editions having been published in 1934, 1942, 1949, and 1953. This publication presents basic material concerning rheumatic diseases in as simple and concise a form as is consistent with adequate coverage, bearing in mind the particular needs of the general physician and the student. The voluminous and rapidly expanding literature is not cited because of the condensed nature of the primer. The 12th "Review of American and English Literature," the previous "Reviews," and textbooks by outstanding authorities in the field are available in medical libraries for more extensive reading and background. The new journalArthritis and Rheumatism, now the official organ of the American Rheumatism Association, and theAnnals of the Rheumatic Diseases, published in London, provide the clinician with an abundant source of current articles on these subjects. The terms "rheumatism" and "rheumatic diseases" are now

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.
