Congenital Malformations: Etiologic Factors and Their Role in Prevention
Abstract
IT is just over 20 years since an earlier review of ours of the causes and nature of congenital malformations appeared in these pages.1 When we wrote that report, teratology was a little-known branch of medicine, and the study of teratogenesis was the province of a limited number of scientists. Attempts were under way to discover general and specific causes of birth defects by critical evaluation of family and pregnancy histories, population data, and animal experiments. But it was already clear that the causative factors were heterogeneous and complex and that for the majority of birth defects the knowledge of . . .

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.
