  • A few studies suggest that LV mass may be increased in obesity, but that the increase is appropriate for body size if obesity is truly uncomplicated.

    “A few studies suggest that LV mass may be increased in obesity, but that the increase is appropriate for body size if obesity is truly “uncomplicated” (i.e., lack of comorbid conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, coronary artery disease, etc.) (151, 155, 156).”

    From Cardiac remodeling in obesity (2008) · cites this paper as [151]

  • Both LV cavity size and wall thickness are increased in obese subjects compared with age-matched controls.

    “In addition, the results indicate that both LV cavity size and wall thickness are increased in obese subjects compared with age-matched controls (22, 134, 151, 156, 242, 279, 377).”

    From Cardiac remodeling in obesity (2008) · cites this paper as [151]

  • More recent data confirm the increased prevalence of LV hypertrophy in obese subjects.

    “The more recent data confirm the increased prevalence of LV hypertrophy in obese subjects.”

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.
