Behçet's Disease
Abstract
BehÇet's disease is an inflammatory disorder of unknown cause, characterized by recurrent oral aphthous ulcers, genital ulcers, uveitis, and skin lesions.1,2 All these common manifestations are self-limiting except for the ocular attacks. Repeated attacks of uveitis can cause blindness.13 Behçet's disease is not a chronic, persistent inflammatory disease, but rather one consisting of recurrent attacks of acute inflammation. Involvement of the gastrointestinal tract, central nervous system, and large vessels is less frequent (Table 1), although it can be life-threatening.1,2,46 Susceptibility to Behçet's disease is strongly associated with the presence of the HLA-B51 allele.7,8 Environmental . . .

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.
