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?
In the citing paper
“Oyelowo et al. found that skipping the first active meal adversely affected female rats more than males, with significantly reduced estrogen, LH, FSH, and prolactin levels in females [20].”
In the citing paper
“Interestingly, Oyelowo et al. found that skipping the first active meal (breakfast-skipping model) for 4 weeks increased testosterone levels and sperm count in male rats, contrasting with adverse effects observed in females [20].”
In the citing paper
“Evidence quality assessment (Section 3.1.3—Semen Parameters and Fertility): LIMITED—predominantly animal data [16,17,18,19,20]; human data consist of a single conference abstract (Sayme et al. [22]) without full published results.”
In the citing paper
“Oyelowo et al. found that skipping the first active meal adversely affected female rats more than males, with significantly reduced estrogen, LH, FSH, and prolactin levels in females [20].”
In the citing paper
“This suggests greater female vulnerability to meal-timing disruptions.”

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.
