Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

We couldn’t retrieve this paper’s full text, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

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?

  • Computational tools can mitigate risks associated with NGPs by enabling whole-genome sequence analysis, early detection of antibiotic resistance genes, virulence-related traits, horizontal gene transfer potential, and negative metabolic characteristics, speeding strain selection and regulatory assessment.

    “Computational tools can be applied to mitigate risks associated with NGPs by enabling whole-genome sequence analysis, early detection of antibiotic resistance genes, virulence-related traits, the potential for horizontal gene transfer, and other potentially negative metabolic characteristics, thus speeding up strain selection and regulatory assessment [140,161].”

  • NGPs require greater safety consideration than traditional probiotics because they lack a safe use history and have a more ambiguous potential to cause infectious diseases.

    “Another class of probiotics, NGPs (e.g., specifically commensal gut bacteria such as Bacteroides, Clostridium, and Akkermansia), require greater safety consideration than traditional probiotics because they lack a “safe use history” and have a more “ambiguous” potential to cause infectious diseases [140].”

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.
