Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
In the citing paper
“Limits to the duration of life could well be determined by a set of species-specific, longevity-assurance systems encoded in the genome that counteract these inadvertent byproducts, which are likely to include inherent imperfections in transferring genetic information into cellular function13,14.”
From Evidence for a limit to human lifespan (2016) · cites this paper as [14]
In the citing paper
“Instead, what appears to be a ‘natural limit’ is an inadvertent byproduct of fixed genetic programs for early life events, such as development, growth and reproduction.”

In the citing paper
“In time, DNA injuries inevitably accumulate9 making genome instability a true hallmark of ageing (Figure 2).”
From The central role of DNA damage in the ageing process (2021) · cites this paper as [9]

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.
