Abstract

McARDLE'S syndrome,1 an inborn error of metabolism caused by a lack of glycogen phosphorylase activity in skeletal muscle, is a recessive condition of some rarity.2 Nevertheless, it poses a constant problem in the differential diagnosis of all forms of muscular disorder. Patients usually present with this condition after a long history of inability to sustain exercise; the diagnosis is suggested by the demonstration that ischemic exercise (the forearm-exercise test2) fails to generate lactic acid, and it is confirmed after open-muscle biopsy by the histochemical demonstration of excess glycogen and absent phosphorylase. A conclusive diagnosis and further clarification of various . . .

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.
