The Pneumococcus: Epidemiology, Microbiology, and Pathogenesis
Open accessAbstract
The pneumococcus is the classic Gram-positive extracellular pathogen. The medical burden of diseases it causes is amongst the greatest in the world. Intense study for more than 100 years has yielded an understanding of fundamental aspects of its physiology, pathogenesis, and immunity. Efforts to control infection have led to the deployment of polysaccharide vaccines and an understanding of antibiotic resistance. The inflammatory response to pneumococci, one of the most potent in medicine, has revealed the double-edged sword of clearance of infection but at a cost of damage to host cells. In virtually every aspect of the infectious process, the pneumococcus has set the rules of the Gram-positive pathogenesis game.

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.
