Cecil Textbook of Medicine
Abstract
It took eight years, but the new edition of the granddaddy of general internal medicine texts has finally been published. At a time when many authoritative reference texts are updated and published every three years, it is surprising that it took this long to get the newCecil. I suspect that the many physicians who usedCecilas their guide to internal medicine will be quite pleased that the wait is over. On the surface, the novice might wonder if there is a difference among the major internal medicine textbooks. All of them are thick, heavy books with prestigious editors (interestingly, among the editors ofCecil, Harrison, Stein's, and Kelley's texts, none are women). The difference is in their organization, which in some cases is substantial. According to the preface to the previous edition ofCecil, the concept was not to fragment discussions of disease processes but, rather, to combine

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.
