Measurement of Delayed Skin-Test Responses
Abstract
Measurement of delayed skin-test responses is a basic clinical procedure, originally used for identification of infection with microbial agents. More recently, skin testing with a battery of antigens has had wide application in the evaluation of cellular immune reactivity of patients with malignant neoplasms. Such measurements may provide important prognostic information.1 , 2 It is generally assumed that every physician knows when and how to read a skin test, and this subject has received little investigative or teaching attention in recent years. Unfortunately, the utility of this simple and universally available method of immunologic examination is compromised by substantial variation in measurements . . .

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.
