In the citing paper
“In addition to insufficient intake, high-intensity sport can lead to ID through other mechanisms, such as increased iron demand, higher iron loss due to micro-trauma and ischemia of the gut, hemolysis, iron loss through increased sweating [12,18,25], and dysregulation of iron absorption and storage by elevated hepcidin levels post-exercise [26].”

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.
