Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Rats on a restricted diet lived about 33% longer than it was known before.

    “In 1935, Clive McCay and coworkers published a seminal paper in which they reported that rats on a restricted diet lived about 33% longer than it was known before (McCay et al. 1935).”
  • Dietary restriction and related regimens extend lifespan and healthspan.

    “While dietary restriction and related regimens extend lifespan and healthspan, a key question is whether they have a ‘rejuvenating’ effect and reverse ageing features in already old individuals.”

  • Alterations in the diet, particularly dietary restriction, have long been used to delay the ageing process.

    “Alterations in the diet, particularly dietary restriction, have long been used to delay the ageing process206,207.”

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.
