The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“Subsequently, alternative approaches were developed that require fewer parameters, including Boolean network modeling (Davidson et al., 2002) and constraint-based modeling (Orth et al., 2010; Thiele et al., 2009).”
From A Whole-Cell Computational Model Predicts Phenotype from Genotype (2012) · cites this paper as Orth et al., 2010
The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“For instance, Flux Balance Analysis (FBA) models have been used to predict and understand the behavior of microbes given their environment (Orth et al., 2010;Thiele et al., 2013;Zelezniak et al., 2015).”
From The Microbiota-Gut-Brain Axis (2019) · cites this paper as Orth et al., 2010
In the citing paper
“ME models have only been developed for Thermotoga maritima (Lerman et al, 2012) and E. coli (Orth et al, 2010) because they require detailed knowledge of all the steps of protein synthesis (protein maturation, protein folding, metal binding, etc.), which are not readily available for all organisms, and in particular for eukaryal cells.”
From Improving the phenotype predictions of a yeast genome‐scale metabolic model by incorporating enzymatic constraints (2017) · cites this paper as Orth et al, 2010
In the citing paper
“GECKO uses the flux balance analysis (FBA) approach (Orth et al, 2010).”
From Improving the phenotype predictions of a yeast genome‐scale metabolic model by incorporating enzymatic constraints (2017) · cites this paper as Orth et al, 2010
In the citing paper
“This approach, called flux balance analysis (Orth et al., 2010), enables comparison of metabolic fluxes with transcriptome and proteomedataandprovidesinformationaboutthe control of fluxes at the genome scale (Bordel et al., 2010).”
From Absolute Quantification of Protein and mRNA Abundances Demonstrate Variability in Gene-Specific Translation Efficiency in Yeast (2017) · cites this paper as Orth et al., 2010
In the citing paper
“Heckmann et al. 14 developed a k cat prediction model for enzymes in E. coli . The model relies on detailed, expert-crafted input features such as enzyme active site properties, metabolite concentrations, experimental conditions, and reaction fluxes calculated through flux balance analysis (FBA) 15 . It achieved a coefficient of determination R 2 ≈ 0.34 on an independent test set.”

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.
