Description

A collection of 9 Claude Code skills covering the full medical research lifecycle, from PubMed literature search with anti-hallucination citation verification to manuscript compliance auditing against STARD, STROBE, PRISMA, and 6 other reporting guidelines. Includes statistical analysis code generation, publication-ready figure creation, study design review, and academic presentation preparation. Built by physicians and battle-tested on real radiology publications.

Validate Claims

Install the check-reporting skill and point it at any medical manuscript or preprint PDF. It will produce an item-by-item compliance report (PRESENT/PARTIAL/MISSING) against the appropriate reporting guideline. For a quick test without a real manuscript, create a minimal test file:

echo "# Methods\nWe performed a retrospective study of 200 patients." > test_manuscript.md

Then ask Claude: /check-reporting test_manuscript.md --guideline STARD

It will flag most STARD items as MISSING since the test file is minimal, demonstrating that the checklist audit is real and not fabricated.

Specific Task(s)

1. Install check-reporting and audit a manuscript against STARD 2015 guidelines
2. Install search-lit and search PubMed for recent studies on a topic — verify that every returned citation has a real PMID
3. Install make-figures and generate a PRISMA flow diagram from screening numbers

Specific Prompt(s)

1. /check-reporting manuscript.md --guideline STARD
2. /search-lit "diagnostic accuracy of AI for lung nodule detection" --database pubmed --limit 10
3. /make-figures prisma --identified 500 --screened 350 --eligible 45 --included 23

Additional Comments

This is a domain-specific skill collection for medical/clinical researchers. The skills are designed to work together — for example, check-reporting can invoke make-figures to generate a missing PRISMA flow diagram, or analyze-stats to fill in statistical gaps. All bundled reporting guideline checklists (STROBE, STARD, TRIPOD+AI, PRISMA, ARRIVE) retain their original Creative Commons licenses. No network requests except to public APIs (PubMed E-utilities, Semantic Scholar, CrossRef) for citation verification.
