Abstract
Goodman and Gilman's seventh edition contains many significant new attractive features in its coverage of the chemotherapy of parasitic and the so-called “tropical diseases.” Notably, the authorship has changed. Leslie T. Webster, Jr., has written the section on parasitic diseases (pages 1004–1065); Gerald L. Mandell and Merle A. Sande have authored the section on tuberculosis and leprosy (pages 1199–1218), as well as the section on antifungal and antiviral agents (pages 1219–1239).An excellent new four-page table is found at the beginning of Section XI, summarizing the principal protozoan and metazoan infections, together with the drug treatment of first and second choice, as well as pertinent comments. A quick perusal of this chart, for example, indicates that for the treatment of Taenia solium (pork tapeworm), praziquantel is given as the drug of choice and niclosamide is listed as the drug of second choice. Praziquantel is preferred for T. solium because of the danger of cysticercosis.

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.
