The Right Brain Hypothesis for Obesity
Abstract
THE PREVALENCE OF OBESITY CONTINUES TO INcrease exponentially worldwide. In the United States, where the majority of the adult population is at least overweight, this condition accounts for an economic burden in billions of dollars per year. Despite increased awareness and determined efforts, the epidemic remains uncontrolled and constitutes a global public health problem. Moreover, the current state of knowledge may not include critical aspects of the etiology of obesity.

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.
