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?

  • Wearable sweat sensors address the limitation of traditional sweat testing by enabling in situ sweat measurements with real-time feedback, creating potential for preventive care, timely diagnosis, and treatment.

    “By taking advantage of flexible and hybrid electronics (13–17), wearable sweat sensors address this limitation by enabling in situ sweat measurements with real-time feedback, creating potential for preventive care, timely diagnosis, and treatment (18–34).”
  • Flexible but nonstretchable epidermal electrodes can delaminate due to disparity between nonstretchable electrode mechanics and stretchable skin, especially during high-acuity sporting activities.

    “As such, disparity between the nonstretchable mechanics of the electrode coupled with the stretchable mechanics of the skin can lead to electrode delamination especially during high-acuity sporting activities.62”

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.
