Patient Compliance
Abstract
MUCH time, effort and expense is spent in the study of the effects of drugs, but little attention is devoted to whether or not patients take them as directed. And yet the drug defaulter is part of every practice, and to prescribe effectively, physicians should know how to recognize and reduce factors that contribute to poor compliance.Frequency and Types of NoncomplianceNoncompliance has been observed in the treatment of a wide variety of diseases. A recent review of over 50 studies1 found that complete failure to take medication often occurred in between 1/4 and over 1/2 of all outpatients. . . .

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.
