Group A Streptococcal Infections and Acute Rheumatic Fever
Abstract
STREPTOCOCCUS PYOGENES (group A streptococcus) is one of the most common and ubiquitous of human pathogens. It causes a wide array of infections, the most frequent of which are acute pharyngitis ("strep throat") and impetigo (pyoderma). Other manifestations of infection with group A streptococcus include sinusitis, otitis, peritonsillar and retropharyngeal abscess, pneumonia, scarlet fever, erysipelas, cellulitis, lymphangitis, puerperal sepsis, vaginitis, myositis, gangrene, and perianal cellulitis. The organism has, moreover, long been the focus of intense clinical and investigative interest because of its association with two nonsuppurative sequelae: acute rheumatic fever and acute glomerulonephritis. Infections caused by group A streptococci were . . .

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.
