In the citing paper
“Several previous studies in humans have reported positive correlations between various measures of parasite stress and preferences for putative cues of long-term health, suggesting that individuals place greater emphasis on potential mates' health cues in regions where pathogens impose a greater selection pressure (Gangestad & Buss 1993; Low 1990).”

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.
