Case-Fatality Rate and Characteristics of Patients Dying in Relation to COVID-19 in Italy
Abstract
This Viewpoint from physicians with the Italian National Institute of Health confirms a higher case-fatality rate from coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in Italy compared with China and explains possible reasons, including age, cause of death definitions, and testing strategy.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
In the citing paper
“the current state of hospitals and other healthcare settings is becoming more “deliriogenic” as they restrict visitors, require all staff members to wear personal protective equipment (PPE), and minimize patient interaction to avoid exposure [24].”
In the citing paper
“Leading authorities on delirium have found that altered mental status may be one of the first signs of COVID-19 infection among vulnerable older adults”

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.
