The Reliability of Clinical Methods, Data and Judgments: (Second of Two Parts)
Abstract
Interpreting Diagnostic ProceduresElectrocardiograph (Table 3)Efforts are under way to minimize sources of observer disagreement in electrocardiographic interpretation by use of codes, averaging of readings, computer analysis, and other methods.35 36 37 Even with completely reliable computerized reading, the diagnostic implications of electrocardiographic changes depend on the patient's age, sex, and clinical situation. In the following studies, the clinical information available to the readers varied.Gorman and his associates30 compared two independent interpretations of an unselected series of 561 electrocardiograms of adult inpatients. The tracings were read first by one of three electrocardiographers and then by one . . .

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.
