Abstract

The present research has been- directed tow ards further examination of the distribution of the spinal nerve-roots. It has been pursued in continuance of previous experi­ments dealing with the spinal pairs below the brachial. The communication treats of especially the skin-fields of the cranial and cervico-brachial nerves. In order to obtain a more perfect idea of the scheme of distribution of each entire spinal nerve the muscular fields of the spinal nerves of the limb region have been concurrently determined by separate experiments. Finally, these motor and sensory fields having been delimited, and thus the requisite prelimen to the original aim of the inquiry carried through, the examination of certain spinal reflexes has been proceeded to. I beg to sincerely thank Professor Michael Foster for his kind encouragement throughout.

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.
