In the citing paper
“Although standard heavy-weight polypropylene mesh significantly decreases the risk of hernia recurrence, 6 its usual configuration has rendered it capable of withstanding a force of 6 to 10 times the calculated tensile strength of the average abdominal wall, suggesting that it is overengineered to a supratherapeutic strength.7,8”

In the citing paper
“In a prospective, randomized study comparing mesh repair to suture repair without mesh, Luijendijk et al. reported 24% recurrence at 3 years for mesh repairs compared to 43% recurrence for suture repairs [26].”

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.
