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?

  • The study followed published guidelines recommending exclusion of CRP >10 mg/L observations from analyses.

    “Thus, we followed published guidelines that recommend excluding such observations from analyses (30).”

    From Clustering of depression and inflammation in adolescents previously exposed to childhood adversity (2012) · cites this paper as [30]

    The opening section and “CRP as a Clinical Test in Cardiovascular Practices” recommend repeating CRP tests above the stated threshold to rule out infection or other inflammatory processes. They do not recommend excluding those observations from analyses, so the cited paper supports the threshold-related caution but not the claimed analytical exclusion. (LLM, conf=0.86)

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.
