Primes

• Complete Enumeration
  • In public health, disease registries pursue completeness as an institutional and legal mandate.

    This sourceEstablishes completeness — the extent to which all incident cases in the population are registered — as a core cancer-registry quality attribute, with methods for estimating it. (Resolves needs-source-006 with an epidemiology/surveillance reference; supports completeness-as-mandated-quality-attribute, the institutional-mandate framing being the practical motivation.)

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? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.

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.
