  • In patients undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions, there was a graded response manifest as a progressive decrease in mortality as BMI increased.

    “Importantly, there was a graded response manifest as a progressive decrease in mortality as BMI increased (121, 123).”

  • In 9,633 consecutive patients undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions, those who were very lean or with BMI in the normal range were at the highest risk for in-hospital complications, cardiac death, and 1-yr mortality.

    “In 9,633 consecutive patients undergoing percutaneous coronary interventions, those who were very lean or with BMI in the normal range were found to be at the highest risk for in-hospital complications, cardiac death, and 1-yr mortality.”

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.
