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

  • Cartilage lacks blood vessels, cellular reproduction, and regenerative capacity.

    “Unlike regular bone tissue, however, cartilage lacks blood vessels, cellular reproduction, and regenerative capacity [138].”

    From Mussel-Inspired Injectable Adhesive Hydrogels for Biomedical Applications (2024) · cites this paper as [138]

    The Introduction (page unavailable) says articular cartilage defects have a low capacity for self-repair, supporting limited natural repair but not an absolute lack of regenerative capacity. Our copy does not state that cartilage lacks blood vessels or cellular reproduction, or make the comparison with bone tissue. (LLM, conf=0.88)

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.
