Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

We couldn’t retrieve this paper’s full text, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

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?

  • This result can be theoretically explained using a slight variation of the energy function proposed in equation (5.2).

    “This result can be theoretically explained, for example, using a slight variation of the energy function proposed in equation (5.2) [236].”

    From Fundamental constraints to the logic of living systems (2024) · cites this paper as [236]

  • Even the material properties of single cells may live in the continuum; these individual properties are projected at the collective level in a highly non-trivial way.

    “Indeed, even the material properties of single cells may live in the continuum; these individual properties are projected at the collective level—for example, the tissue—in a highly non-trivial way [235,236].”

  • The continuum of cell material properties is projected to the tissue level as a finite amount of different material phases.

    “Surprisingly, the continuum of cell material properties is projected to the tissue level as a finite amount of different material phases.”

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.
