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?

  • Activity of receptor tyrosine kinases, metabotropic glutamic receptors and NMDA receptors leads to activation of PI3K/AKT and RAS/ERK signaling pathways, and thereby influences synaptic plasticity by mediating expression and trafficking of AMPA receptors in excitatory synapses and controlling LTD and LTP responses.

    “Activity of receptor tyrosine kinases, metabotropic glutamic receptors and NMDA receptors lead to the activation of PI3K/AKT and RAS/ERK signaling pathways [185, 189], and thereby influence synaptic plasticity by mediating expression and trafficking of AMPA receptors in excitatory synapses and controlling long-term depression (LTD) and long-term potentiation (LTP) responses [188–190].”
  • PI3K/AKT, RAS/ERK, WNT and β-catenin pathways control soma size, dendritic arborization, axon generation, spine development and synapse function.

    “These pathways control soma size, dendritic arborization, axon generation, spine development and synapse function [184–188].”

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.
