Abstract

Metabolites, typically recognized as small molecules that are involved in cellular reactions, provide a functional signature of phenotype that is complimentary to the upstream biochemical information obtained from genes, transcripts, and proteins. The high-level of correlation between metabolites and phenotype has created a surge of interest in the field that is reflected in the number of metabolomic publications growing from just a few articles in 1999 to over five thousand in 2011. Although relatively new compared to its genomic and proteomic predecessors, already metabolomics has led to the discovery of biomarkers for disease, fundamental insights into cellular biochemistry, and clues related to disease pathogenesis.1,2

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.
