Statistics

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?

  • Targeted delivery by dendrimers can be achieved by attaching target ligands such as transferrin family ligands, monoclonal antibodies against specific receptors, and lectins such as wheat germ agglutinin.

    “Targeted delivery by dendrimers can be achieve by attaching target ligands such as transferrin family ligands having an affinity for TRs, mAbs against specific receptors, lectins such as wheat germ agglutinin (WGA), etc”
  • Dendrimers are preferred over traditional polymers due to high aqueous solubility, biocompatibility, polyvalency, and precise molecular weight, making them amenable for targeted brain drug delivery.

    “dendrimers are given more preference over traditional polymers due to various features such as high aqueous solubility, biocompatibility, polyvalency, and precise molecular weight which make them amenable for targeted drug delivery in the brain”

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.
