Diagnosis of "Hysteria"
Open accessAbstract
It is a unique honour to have been asked to give the first Shorvon Memorial Lecture; and I should like to give thanks to the Hospital and the School who have awarded the privilege to me, and to the family whose generous endowment has established it.At this moment I would not find it easy to embark on a formal biographical sketch of a man who was my close friend and colleague, whose death little more than three years ago left us all with a lasting regret.It is, however, proper to record essential facts.Hyam

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.
