THE TECUMSEH STUDY
Abstract
Occurrence of acute enteric illnesses was examined in Tecumseh, Michigan, during the period 1965-1971. Incidence of illness was highest under age 3 years, fell thereafter and rose again during the age group 20-29 years. Below age 3 years, frequency was higher in males than in females, but above that age the pattern was reversed. Overall, the incidence of illness was 1.2 per person year. Approximately 65 per cent of illnesses occurred in the autumn-winter, and the remainder in spring-summer. Activity restriction was observed in 52 per cent of illnesses. Respiratory symptoms were reported in 27 per cent of enteric illnesses. The enteric-respiratory illness complex, which appeared to be a distinct entity, was more severe than other illnesses in term of activity restriction, fever, physician consultation and duration. A portion of the respiratory illnesses associated with the isolation of certain respiratory agents was found to include distinct enteric symptoms.

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.
