## Every figure, with its source

One row per source: the figure the source's own page publishes, the page, and the day it was read.

## Methodology

Every row is a verbatim sentence read from the named source's own page through the estate's fetch service on the date shown, hash-pinned to the stored read (the sha of the page's visible text; the raw page is mirrored to R2). 4 of the 15 named sources that could be read published a usable figure; 11 published none and are recorded as not published, never filled in; 0 could not be read (blocked, dead or unreachable) and count nowhere. The headline figures (median, minimum, maximum, quartiles) are over ONE figure per source in day (a source's median where its page yielded several accepted sentences), so N counts sources, never sentences; 31 candidate sentence(s) were refused by a reviewer with the reason recorded. Derivation as chartered: one row per requirement per regime, quoted verbatim from the authority with its effective date and edition: what an electronic record must carry (21 CFR Part 11), what the QC laboratory must retain and for how long (21 CFR 211 subpart I), what a CLIA laboratory must demonstrate (42 CFR 493), the ISO 17025 and ISO 8655 clause numbers and their current editions, and the EPA method a given analyte must be run by (40 CFR 136); the cross-regime comparison - what the FDA, the MHRA and the EU each demand of the same audit trail - is the figure
