Parkinson's Disease
Abstract
More than 180 years ago, James Parkinson first described the disorder that bears his name, and 30 years ago levodopa, still the most effective therapy, was introduced. Parkinson's disease is a neurodegenerative disorder of unknown cause that affects over 1 million people in North America. Age is the single most consistent risk factor, and with the increasing age of the general population, the prevalence of Parkinson's disease will rise steadily in the future. The impact of the disease is indicated by the fact that mortality is two to five times as high among affected persons as among age-matched controls,1– . . .

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.
