Obsessive-compulsive disorder
Abstract
Obsessive—compulsive disorder is a common psychiatric disorder characterized by intrusive thoughts or ‘obsessions’, which predispose to repetitive acts or rituals, known as ‘compulsions’. These compulsions are necessary to relieve the anxiety caused by the obsession. Patients have insight into the unnecessary nature of the symptoms but can find them hard to suppress. Inability to carry out everyday activities can lead to significant functional impairment. Many feel embarrassed and go to great lengths to conceal the disorder from others which can lead to a delay in diagnosis and management.

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.
