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?
The source backs part of the claim, not all of it — or backs it for a different population, condition or comparison.
In the citing paper
“ABCC4 (MRP4) is an ATP-dependent efflux transporter of the ABC family that exports a broad range of substrates, including anticancer drugs, bile acids, and cyclic nucleotides43,50,84–86.”

Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe source backs part of the claim, not all of it — or backs it for a different population, condition or comparison.
In the citing paper
“Functioning as a hepatic efflux transporter of cyclic AMP (cAMP), ABCC4 deficiency led to intracellular accumulation of cAMP, thereby activating the downstream sensor Epac2.”

Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredThe check wasn’t confident either way, so it gives no verdict — never disputed.
In the citing paper
“Moreover, ABCC4 has been shown to augment the potential for platelet activation by facilitating cAMP efflux, which in turn intensifies cAMP-dependent signal transduction to the nucleus43,44.”

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.
