Standards of Medical Care in Diabetes–2006
Open accessAbstract
I recently encountered a discrepancy in the American Diabetes Association’s (ADA’s) recommendations regarding conventional versus SI units for HDL cholesterol (1). The article states “raise HDL cholesterol to >40 mg/dl (1.15 mmol/l).” Simple calculation shows that 40 mg/dl = 40 × 0.02586 mmol/l = 1.03 mmol/l, rather than 1.15 mmol/l. The same error is also noted in the 2005 version. Furthermore, in regard to the ADA’s recommendation to use statin therapy for diabetic patients without overt cardiovascular disease (CVD), the recommendation to treat “regardless of baseline LDL” might have extended beyond the evidence quoted. I …

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.
