Dyslexia: An Appraisal of Current Knowledge
Open accessAbstract
whose lengths vary with the amount of information available under each chap- ter heading and in this respect the book is well proportioned.One page on the radiology of the condition is entirely suffiicent, as are two pages on its psy- chology.By contrast, some 46 pages are devoted to a detailed morphological study of the muscle and peripheral nerve.They cover the history, clinical features, a tentative classification based on the author's experience, morphology, electrophysiology, radiology, psychology, biochemistry, immunology, and so forth.This book summarises very adequately and comprehensively the profusion of recent reports on the spinal muscular atrophies, and it has not suffered in translation.I consider it essential read- ing for all who are interested in this group of conditions J.

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.
