There is a nationwide shortage of palliative care specialists.
“given the nationwide shortage of palliative care specialists [35, 36]”
Community-based oncology clinics often lack access to palliative care specialists.
“These clinics often lack access to palliative care specialists [35, 36]”
There is a high level of unmet palliative care needs in cancer and beyond.
“Given the high level of unmet palliative care needs in cancer and beyond [35, 36] and the broader need for palliative care interventions that do not require palliative care specialists and address multiple unmet needs in a single intervention, this study has the potential to advance the field while providing enduring benefits to adults with cancer.”

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.
