In the citing paper
“the biostatistics literature has focused on sequential random ignorability assumptions that impose that treatment in each period is random conditional on the path of covariates and realized outcomes, rather than parallel trends.”
From What's trending in difference-in-differences? A synthesis of the recent econometrics literature (2023) · cites this paper as Robins (1986)
The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“Note also that the truncated factorization formula is not restricted to interventions on a single variable; it is applicable to simultaneous or sequential interventions such as those invoked in the analysis of time varying treatment with time varying confounders (Robins, 1986; Arjas and Parner, 2004).”

In the citing paper
“the algebraic machinery offered by the counterfactual notation, Y x (u), once a problem is properly formalized, can be extremely powerful in refining assumptions (Angrist et al., 1996, Heckman andVytlacil, 2005), deriving consistent estimands (Robins, 1986), bounding probabilities of necessary and sufficient causation (Tian and Pearl, 2000), and combining data from experimental and nonexperimental”

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.
