Failure of Children to Receive Penicillin by Mouth
Abstract
A TEN-DAY blood level of penicillin is necessary to eradicate Group A beta-hemolytic streptococci from the pharynx.1 , 2 For implementation of this objective the American Heart Association recommends either a single injection of benzathine penicillin G, injections of procaine penicillin with aluminum monostearate every third day for three doses or penicillin, 200,000 to 250,000 units, given three times daily by mouth for a full ten days, even if the patient becomes afebrile and asymptomatic.3 The question always arises when medication is given by mouth whether it actually reaches the patient's stomach, particularly in the amount and for the duration prescribed. . . .

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.
