Gliogenesis in the outer subventricular zone promotes enlargement and gyrification of the primate cerebrum
Open accessAbstract
Significance: The formation of cortical convolutions of primates, including humans, is one of the most important subjects in developmental neuroscience, but the underlying mechanisms—considered mostly solved toward the end of the 20th century—have become controversial in the last decade. Recent studies suggest that a stem cell zone called the outer subventricular zone (oSVZ) induces gyri to form directly through neurogenesis. Here, we provide evidence in macaque monkey demonstrating that oSVZ neurogenesis is actually complete before gyrification begins and that a major function of the oSVZ is to produce the glial cells associated with the rapid expansion and folding of the cortical surface.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
The source backs part of the claim, not all of it — or backs it for a different population, condition or comparison.
In the citing paper
“In nonhuman primates and human, glial cells seem to somewhat outnumber neurons in the PFC, albeit with regional variation which is likely to contribute to the formation of secondary and tertiary gyri [77–81].”

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.
