In Singh et al.'s 13 cases, the patients' average age was 56 years and 6 patients had comorbidities such as hypertension, diabetes, and obesity.

The review text reports six patients, not 13, and gives a median age of 58 years, not an average of 56. Table 1 lists their medical histories; it does not report six patients with comorbidities such as hypertension, diabetes, and obesity. Page numbers are not provided in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.90)

From Portal-splenic-mesenteric venous thrombosis in COVID-19 patients: a systematic review (2025) · cites this paper as Singh et al.58
The main text (page not available) says the review found six patients with COVID-19-associated splanchnic vein thrombosis, 50% of whom were male. Table 1 lists three men and three women, contrary to the attributed count of 13 acute mesenteric ischemia cases, including nine men and three women. (LLM, conf=0.90)
Checked by a reasoning model — may be wrong.

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.
