Primes¶
- Prototype Theory
- The graded membership is real and consequential: the classic male presentation sits at the center, while the atypical presentation — an older diabetic woman with only fatigue, nausea, and jaw discomfort — sits at the periphery of the same category, sharing fewer of the heavily-weighted prototypical features.
This sourceDocuments atypical (chest-pain-absent) MI presentations and their under-recognition and higher mortality.

Canto et al. show MI without chest pain is more common in older patients, women and diabetics; they say nothing of prototypes or of the specific fatigue/nausea/jaw presentation.
“This group of MI patients was, on average, 7 years older than those with chest pain (74.2 vs 66.9 years), with a higher proportion of women (49.0% vs 38.0%) and patients with diabetes mellitus (32.6% vs 25.4%)”

Verification¶
Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.
Does it back the claim? Read against the text for 1 of 1 citation: 1 supported in part. Each verdict is shown under its citation below, with what in the work backs the sentence.
Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
