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?

  • NAT1 is ubiquitously expressed at a low level across tissues and is generally considered extra-hepatic, while NAT2 is considered hepatic.

    “However, we may not be able to quantitate this protein in hepatocytes as NAT1 is ubiquitously expressed at a low level across tissues, and is generally considered to be an extra-hepatic enzyme, while NAT2 is considered to be a hepatic enzyme.23,52”

    From N-Acetyltransferase (NAT) 1 and NAT2 Enzyme Activities Drive Interindividual Variability in Sulfamethoxazole N-Acetylation (2025) · cites this paper as [52]

    The Background’s “Function and expression” section says NAT1 is ubiquitously expressed, with levels varying by cell type and tissue, and that NAT2 expression is predominant in the liver, small intestine, and colon. It does not say NAT1 is expressed at a low level across tissues or classify it as extra-hepatic; describing NAT2 simply as hepatic also omits its substantial intestinal expression.

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.
