Multidrug Resistance in Yersinia pestis Mediated by a Transferable Plasmid
Abstract
Yersinia pestis is the causative agent of plague, a zoonotic disease transmitted to humans through flea bites and typically characterized by the appearance of a tender and swollen lymph node, the bubo. Human-to-human transmission can occur, through either the bite of fleas (bubonic plague) or respiratory droplets, causing an overwhelming infection called pneumonic plague. The last plague pandemic began in Hong Kong in 1894 and spread throughout the world, establishing many endemic foci. Antibiotics and enforcement of public health measures significantly decreased the morbidity and mortality associated with the disease but did not allow its eradication. In fact, plague . . .

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.
