Principles and Applications of Methods for DNA-Based Typing of Microbial Organisms

Abstract

Outbreaks of infectious disease often result from exposure to a common source of the etiologic agent. Generally, the etiologic agent causing an outbreak of infection is derived from a single cell whose progeny are genetically identical or closely related to the source organism. In epidemiological terms, the organisms involved in the outbreak are clonally related; that is, they have a common origin. Clonally related organisms are members of the same species that share virulence factors, biochemical traits, and genomic characteristics. However, there is sufficient diversity at the species level that organisms isolated from different sources at different times and in different geographical regions may be differentiated or classified into subtypes or strains.

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.
