  • This is the first study to provide direct evidence that chronic stress is sufficient to allow infiltration of circulating cytokines in the absence of local mechanical trauma or a brain tumor.

    “To our knowledge, this is the first study to provide direct evidence that chronic stress is sufficient to allow infiltration of circulating cytokines in the absence of local mechanical trauma or a brain tumor41, 42.”

    From Social stress induces neurovascular pathology promoting depression (2017) · cites this paper as [41]

    The Summary (page not provided) reports reduced entry of radioactive sodium into cerebrospinal fluid in patients with depressive illness, not infiltration of circulating cytokines. Searches for chronic stress, cytokines, mechanical trauma, and brain tumors found no passage addressing the attributed claim. (LLM, conf=0.76)

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.
