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?

  • Progression of subtle lesions or progression from typical to cystic or deep lesions has not been observed directly.

    “However, progression of subtle lesions or progression from typical to cystic or deep lesions has not been observed directly (56).”

    From Pathogenesis of endometriosis: The genetic/epigenetic theory (2019) · cites this paper as [56]

  • Deep endometriosis seems to be reactivated by trauma, such as by in vitro fertilization-related needle punctures for oocyte pick-up, triggering the subsequent development of more severe lesions and even a frozen pelvis.

    “Although the mechanisms of reactivation are not understood, deep endometriosis seems to be reactivated by trauma, such as by in vitro fertilization-related needle punctures for oocyte pick-up, triggering the subsequent development of more severe lesions and even a frozen pelvis (56), as frequently observed.”

    From Pathogenesis of endometriosis: The genetic/epigenetic theory (2019) · cites this paper as [56]

  • Progression from subtle to more severe lesions, or from typical to cystic or deep, or from cystic to deep has never been observed and remains speculation.

    “However, progression from subtle to more severe lesions, or from typical to cystic or deep, or from cystic to deep has never been observed and remains speculation.”

    From Pathogenesis of deep endometriosis (2017) · cites this paper as [63]

  • Endometriosis is erroneously considered a progressive disease.

    “Endometriosis is-erroneously (63)-considered a progressive disease.”

    From Pathogenesis of deep endometriosis (2017) · cites this paper as [63]

  • When traumatized by clinical examination or by puncture for oocyte pick-up, deep endometriosis lesions seem to be activated and might start growing again.

    “However, when traumatized by clinical examination or by puncture for oocyte pick-up, deep endometriosis lesions seem to be activated and might start growing again (63).”

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.
