Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Sympatho-adrenal stimulation could contribute to sustain BP levels during acute hypothyroidism as a possible mechanism counteracting the decrease in myocardial inotropism and cardiac output.

    “Sympatho-adrenal stimulation could thus contribute to sustain BP levels during acute hypothyroidism as a possible mechanism counteracting the decrease in myocardial inotropism and cardiac output (4,14,15).”

    From The Role of Thyroid Hormone in Blood Pressure Homeostasis: Evidence from Short-Term Hypothyroidism in Humans (2002) · cites this paper as [14]

    The Physiologic and Pharmacologic Studies section (page unavailable) reports reduced intrinsic contractility in hypothyroid cat heart muscle but unaltered responsiveness to catecholamines and sympathetic nerve stimulation. This supports the possibility of an adrenergic response despite reduced contractility, but the paper does not say that sympatho-adrenal stimulation sustains blood pressure or offsets reduced cardiac output during acute hypothyroidism.

  • In the hyperthyroid state, an increase in renin release secondary to the hormone-dependent decrease in systemic vascular resistance may stimulate the angiotensin-aldosterone axis and sodium reabsorption.

    “in the hyperthyroid state the increase in renin release secondary to the hormone-dependent decrease in systemic vascular resistance may stimulate the angiotensin-aldosterone axis and consequently sodium reabsorption (13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23).”

    From The Role of Thyroid Hormone in Blood Pressure Homeostasis: Evidence from Short-Term Hypothyroidism in Humans (2002) · cites this paper as [14]

    The Physiologic and Pharmacologic Studies section describes hyperthyroidism’s hyperdynamic circulation and thyroid hormone’s effects on the heart, but does not address the proposed renal mechanism. Searches for renin release, systemic vascular resistance, aldosterone, and sodium reabsorption found no passage supporting that chain; page numbers were unavailable in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.76)

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.
