  • Accumulating evidence indicates that diets containing a preponderance of low-GI foods induce modest to clinically important benefits in the intermediate term as shown by intervention studies.

    “there is accumulating evidence (Brand-Miller, 2004) that diets containing a preponderance of foods that elicit low glycaemic responses ('low-GI foods or diets'), as originally defined by Jenkins et al. (1981) induce modest to clinically important benefits in the intermediate term as shown by intervention studies”

    In the main text (page unavailable), Brand-Miller says ample clinical and other evidence supports minimizing postprandial glycemia. But it does not report that intervention studies of diets predominantly containing low-GI foods produced modest to clinically important benefits over an intermediate term; it describes the use of low-GI carbohydrates as controversial and relies chiefly on observational findings and an acarbose trial. (LLM, conf=0.83)

  • According to Brand-Miller (2004), carbohydrate quality as glycaemic index more often shows a significant association with disease risk, including diabetes, cardiovascular disease and cancer, than does carbohydrate content or glycaemic load.

    “According to Brand-Miller (2004), the quality of CHO (i.e.GI) more often shows a significant association with disease risk (diabetes, CVD, cancer) than does the CHO content or GL of the diet.”

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.
