National Nutrition Survey
Abstract
The National Nutrition Survey, which emerged in 1972 from the maze of field studies, laboratories, computer analysis, and committee review, was published in five overwhelming volumes (plus a summary). The four years of work was culminated by the frantic effort of the Nutrition Program of the Center for Disease Control, which inherited the data after the field studies were completed. Only two members remain of Dr. Arnold E. Schaefer's original staff of 69 who began the surveys in 1968-1969. Considering the political overtones that permeated nearly every phase of the study, that a report has finally emerged is a minor miracle. The purpose of the survey was to determine the magnitude and location of malnutrition and related health problems. Limitations of time, money, and personnel dictated that appropriate samples be selected from the country at large. Ten states were selected (Washington, California, Texas, Louisiana, South Carolina, Kentucky, West Virginia, Michigan,

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.
