Claims other papers make about this one

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

  • Finding PDAC before cachexia worsens performance status raises the chance that eligible patients can undergo resection.

    “Second, early detection before the decline in performance status from cancer-induced cachexia increases the prospect of surgical resection in eligible patients.2,5”

    From Radiomics-based Machine-learning Models Can Detect Pancreatic Cancer on Prediagnostic Computed Tomography Scans at a Substantial Lead Time Before Clinical Diagnosis (2022) · cites this paper as [5]

    The paper’s opening section (page unavailable) says that most PDAC is diagnosed at an advanced stage, only 10–15% of patients are candidates for potentially curative treatment including surgery, and early diagnosis requires detection before symptoms. It does not mention cachexia or declining performance status as the reason earlier detection could improve the prospect of resection. (LLM, conf=0.84)

  • Screening asymptomatic adults at average risk for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is not feasible or recommended with current modalities.

    “Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma is relatively uncommon and screening of the asymptomatic adult population is not feasible or recommended with current modalities.”

    From Early detection of pancreatic cancer (2020) · cites this paper as [16]

  • Existing diagnostic methods for pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma would produce unacceptably high false-positive rates if used for population screening.

    “Existing diagnostic methods would incur unacceptably high rates of false-positive findings,16”

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.
