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?

  • Infusion set failure can occur when there is local inflammation at the infusion site, when the catheter is occluded, kinked or has simply dislodged from the subcutaneous space.

    “Infusion set failure can occur when there is local inflammation at the infusion site, when the catheter is occluded, kinked or has simply dislodged from the subcutaneous space.3,4”
  • Occlusions are not necessarily noted immediately and interruptions of insulin flow during infusion often appear to not trigger occlusion alarms because it takes time to build up sufficient back pressure until an occlusion is detected and an alarm sounds.

    “Occlusions are not necessarily noted immediately and interruptions of insulin flow during infusion often appear to not trigger occlusion alarms10 as it takes time to build up sufficient back pressure until an occlusion is detected and an alarm sounds.”
  • Occlusion of an insulin infusion set can degrade patients' confidence in insulin pump technology.

    “degrade patients’ confidence in this type of technology”
  • It often takes several hours after an occlusion occurs before the pump occlusion alarm alerts the user.

    “Such interruptions may have clinical importance because it often takes several hours after an occlusion occurs before the pump occlusion alarm alerts the user, because of different thresholds for alarm activation and variation in basal infusion rate, length of the infusion catheter, and volume of bolus(es).11”
  • Pressure thresholds vary among pumps, such that rises in blood glucose concentration may last up to 5 h before the occlusion alarm sounds.

    “These pressure thresholds vary among pumps, such that rises in blood glucose concentration may last up to 5 h before the occlusion alarm sounds—depending on the pump, the alarm pressure setting, the type and length of infusion set tubing, etc.11”

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.
