  • In an English Premier League study, total energy intake was higher on match days (3,789 ± 532 kcal and 61.1 ± 11.4 kcal kg−1 fat-free mass) than on training days (2,956 ± 374 kcal and 45.2 ± 9.3 kcal kg−1 fat-free mass).

    “total energy intake was higher in match days (3,789 ± 532 kcal and 61.1 ± 11.4 kcal kg -1 fat-free mass) compared to training days (2,956 ± 374 kcal and 45.2 ± 9.3 kcal kg -1 of fat-free mass) [4]”

    From Dietary and Ergogenic Supplementation to Improve Elite Soccer Players’ Performance (2021) · cites this paper as [4]

    The passages from the 2017 Science & Sports paper (pp. 61–72) discuss creatine supplementation and soccer performance, not dietary energy intake. Searches for the reported calorie values, fat-free-mass figures, and match-day versus training-day intake found no passage addressing the comparison. (LLM, conf=0.70)

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.
