Manic-depressive cycles in 18 patients with a rapid-cycling form of bipolar disorder oscillated in synchrony with biweekly surges in amplitude of the moon's twice-daily gravitational tides.
“A recent finding that 18 patients’ manic-depressive cycles oscillated in synchrony with biweekly surges in amplitude of the moon’s tides provided a clue to the cause of the sleep-disturbances.”

Switches from depression into mania were accompanied by one or more nights of total insomnia.
“The switches from depression into mania were also accompanied by one or more nights of total insomnia (Figs. 1 and 5).”

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.
