  • Immigration or holding immigrant status is a social determinant of health-a socially and politically constructed health disadvantage rather than a natural state of health inferiority.

    “As argued by Castañeda et al. (2015), immigration/holding immigrant status is a factor that can have both social and economic impacts on an individual and can be considered a social determinant of health—i.e., a socially and politically constructed health disadvantage rather than a natural state of health inferiority (Marmot 2006).”
  • The social gradient describes how, within a community, people farther down the social ladder face higher risk of illness and premature death than those at the top due to social and economic conditions.

    “The social gradient describes how, within a community, people farther down the social ladder face higher risk of illness and premature death than those at the top of the ladder due to social and economic conditions (Wilkerson and Marmot 2003; Marmot 2006).”

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.
