The most frequently used indexing methods are the Z-score, the aortic height index (AHI), and the aortic size index (ASI).
“The most frequently used indexing methods are the Z-score (Z, dimensionless unit indicating the number of standard deviations from the population mean), the aortic height index (AHI, aortic diameter in millimeters divided by body length in meters), and the aortic size index (ASI, aortic diameter in centimeters divided by body surface area (BSA) per square meters) (Table 12).232,233,441-443”

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.
