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?

  • Patients are typically diagnosed as sensitized based on a positive skin prick test, usually at least 3 mm wheal diameter, or a positive specific serum IgE, usually at least 0.35 kU/L.

    “In epidemiology and clinical practice, patients are typically diagnosed as being “sensitized” based on a positive SPT (usually ≥3 mm wheal diameter), or a positive specific serum IgE (usually ≥0.35 kU/L [specific IgEs are reported in arbitrary units, thus the unit kU]).1007,1008”

    From International Consensus Statement on Allergy and Rhinology: Allergic Rhinitis (2018) · cites this paper as [1007]

    The Introduction (page not available in our copy) calls skin prick testing the method of choice for routine diagnosis, and §1.1 links positive allergen skin tests to IgE-mediated responses. The passages do not give a ≥3 mm wheal cutoff or address a ≥0.35 kU/L serum-specific IgE cutoff; searches for both numbers and test-interpretation criteria found no such passage. (LLM, conf=0.85)

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.
