Recent Advances in the Diagnosis and Treatment of Cerebral Cysticercosis
Abstract
TWO major medical advances have made a review of cerebral cysticercosis timely. The first is the increased availability of CAT scanning, which has contributed both to a more accurate diagnosis and to a better understanding of the pathophysiology of cysticercosis. Investigators can now easily assess changes in lesions or their disappearance during treatment. The second advance is the development and experimental use of chemotherapeutic agents, such as praziquantel, in the treatment of cysticercosis.The Parasite and Acquisition of InfectionCysticercosis is caused by infection with the larval form of the porcine tapeworm, Taenia solium.1 Infection and disease are increasingly . . .

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.
