Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine
Abstract
It seems to us that the world is divided into those who readHarrison'sand those who don't; it is only fair in beginning this review to acknowledge our allegiance to the former. Just asArrowsmithandOf Human Bondagehave shaped our imaginations, our view of internal medicine, perhaps inevitably, has been shaped by our allegiance to this textbook. As medical students, we read the seventh edition from cover to cover, favorite passages highlighted in yellow until, with time, the whole book seemed to fluoresce. What held us then (and still does) was the central strength of this book: the "Cardinal Manifestations of Disease" section, which now occupies 288 pages or roughly one tenth of the book. And, of course, when melancholy set in, one could find inspiration from these memorable words on page 1: No greater opportunity, responsibility, or obligation is given to an individual than that of

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.
