    BDA-AI research is plentiful in medicine but rarely applied to hospital supply chain processes or green practices.

    “Furthermore, BDA-AI is a key construct to manage intra-and inter-organizational environmental issues.”
  • The paper relies on this without support.

    The application of OIPT in the study of hospital operations remains insufficiently studied.

    “the application of the OIPT in the study of hospital operations remains insufficiently studied.”
  • The paper relies on this without support.

    No empirical study has demonstrated the relationship between BDA-AI technologies and environmental internal integration in a hospital context.

    “no empirical study has demonstrated the relationship between BDA-AI technologies and environmental internal integration in a hospital context.”
  • The paper relies on this without support.

    Previous studies have not empirically investigated the relationships and complementarities among BDA-AI, GSCC, EPI, and EP specifically in the hospital context.

    “previous studies have not empirically investigated the relationships and complementarities among the BDA-AI, GSCC, EPI, and EP, specifically in the hospital context.”
  • The paper relies on this without support.

    These studies have not explored the moderating role of digital learning on the relationship between BDA-AI technologies and the GSC process.

    “these studies have not explored the moderating role of digital learning on the relationship between the use of BDA-AI technologies and the GSC process.”
  • The paper relies on this without support.

    The hospital sector lacks capacity and maturity in implementing environmental practices.

    “supply chain collaboration is a critical process in the hospital sector, which lacks capacity and maturity in the implementation of environmental practices.”

Self-check

Percentages, sums and reported differences re-computed from the paper’s own numbers.

Each contradiction between two passages listed here was confirmed by an independent check.

  • H6 standard deviation conflicts with its significant t-value

    Major

    The H6 table gives the coefficient and standard deviation as the same value, yielding a t-ratio of 1 rather than 8.070. That discrepancy bears directly on the reported significance of H6.

    Reported 8.07 · recomputed 1

  • Hospital energy-use ranking changes across sections

    Minor

    The introduction says hospitals use more energy than every other type of commercial building, but a later section places the catering industry ahead of them.

  • H2 t-value does not match its coefficient and standard deviation

    Minor

    The H2 coefficient divided by its standard deviation is about 6.381, rather than the table's 6.967.

    Reported 6.967 · recomputed 6.381443

  • H4 t-value does not match its coefficient and standard deviation

    Minor

    The reported H4 coefficient and standard deviation yield a ratio of about 1.803, not 1.711. The difference is larger than rounding of the displayed inputs permits.

    Reported 1.711 · recomputed 1.803279

  • H3 has conflicting t-values in the results and table

    Minor

    The results text reports an H3 t-value of 1.1961, while Table 5 gives 1.961. These values imply different assessments of the claimed statistical significance.

  • H2 t-value differs between prose and table

    Minor

    The results text gives the BDA-AI-to-EPI t-value as 6.697, whereas Table 5 reports 6.967.

  • H1 t-value does not match its coefficient and standard deviation

    Minor

    Dividing the reported H1 coefficient by its standard deviation gives about 3.946, not the listed t-value of 4.144.

    Reported 4.144 · recomputed 3.945946

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.

A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-09-28, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).

A second model labelled each claim on 2026-09-28 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).

Cited sources are checked with a language model’s help (gpt-6-sol).

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.
