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?

  • LDL clearance from the circulation by LDLR-mediated endocytosis by hepatic and peripheral tissues and subsequent feedback regulation of endogenous synthesis of cholesterol is a key determinant of serum LDL level.

    “LDL clearance from the circulation by LDL receptor (LDLR)-mediated endocytosis by hepatic and peripheral tissues and subsequent feedback regulation of endogenous synthesis of cholesterol is a key determinant of serum LDL level”
  • The balance of serum cholesterol level is determined by dietary intake, synthesis, and catabolism.

    “The balance of serum cholesterol level is determined by dietary intake, synthesis, and catabolism”
  • Excessive cholesterol in the circulation, upon uptake by the liver via LDLR-mediated endocytosis, suppresses endogenous synthesis of cholesterol in the liver.

    “Excessive cholesterol in the circulation, upon uptake by the liver via LDL receptor (LDLR)-mediated endocytosis, suppresses endogenous synthesis of cholesterol in the liver”
  • The main carriers of atherogenic circulating cholesterol in humans are LDL particles, which are produced mainly by the liver to deliver cholesterol to peripheral tissues.

  • Hepatic cells play major roles in removing LDL from the circulation.

    “hepatic cells also play major roles in removing LDL from the circulation”

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.
