Domain-specific¶
- Controlled Descriptor
- A governance authority (NLM, in MeSH's case) adds new descriptors when the literature reliably uses a concept not yet in the vocabulary, retires obsolete ones with forwarding notes, and updates scope notes when a descriptor's coverage drifts
This sourceThe standard prescribing term addition and retirement, routing of non-preferred terms, and scope-note maintenance in a governed vocabulary.

- Controlled Vocabulary
- Listed in the references but not attached to a specific claim.
- Cross-reference Relation
- Thesaural standards, including ANSI/NISO Z39.19 and ISO 25964, define a small, closed inventory of cross-reference types, each with a stipulated semantics
This sourceUF leads from a preferred term to its non-preferred term(s), so several entry terms can route by USE to one preferred term.

“Presents guidelines and conventions for the contents, display, construction, testing, maintenance, and management of monolingual controlled vocabularies. It focuses on controlled vocabularies that are used for the representation of content objects in knowledge organization systems including lists, synonym rings, taxonomies, and thesauri.”

Mechanisms¶
- Controlled Vocabulary
- Its strength is system-wide consistency and interoperability: it is the one mechanism where a single authorized binding scales to thousands of records and multiple systems, which is exactly what authority control was built to do.
This sourceTreats controlled vocabularies as standardized representations that promote consistent use across knowledge-organization systems.

- Hierarchical Taxonomy or Lattice
- That is exactly when a lattice is needed, and refusing multiple inheritance where reality has it is a common, quiet error; a polyhierarchy exists precisely because some classes have more than one legitimate parent.
This sourceDocuments a polyhierarchy exists precisely because some classes have more than one legitimate parent.

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 2 of 9 citations: 2 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.
