Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
Many reviewed papers showed an immediate and persistent jump in outcome levels after the intervention.
“Many papers [54, 64, 80-83] showed an immediate and persistent jump in outcome levels after the intervention.”
From Difference-in-Differences for Health Policy and Practice: A Review of Modern Methods (2025) · cites this paper as [80]
The Methods and Applying Time-Varying DiD For Pharmacy Closures sections describe measuring monthly anticonvulsant fills before and after pharmacy closure, but the passages in our copy do not report an immediate or persistent increase. Searches for post-closure increases and outcome trends found no passage establishing the claimed jump; the paper also does not assess whether many reviewed papers showed one. (LLM, conf=0.72)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
