Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
In the citing paper
“athletes in team sports, ice-hockey and resistance exercise were associated with the greatest use of ST [42].”
From Nicotine: Sporting Friend or Foe? A Review of Athlete Use, Performance Consequences and Other Considerations (2017) · cites this paper as [42]
In the citing paper
“there have been reports from Finland [42] and Switzerland [27] that a dose-response relationship exists between ST and physical activity, such that ST use is markedly increased amongst those reporting greater frequency and intensity of sport/exercise, especially regularly competitive, and with increased physical fitness.”
From Nicotine: Sporting Friend or Foe? A Review of Athlete Use, Performance Consequences and Other Considerations (2017) · cites this paper as [42]
In the citing paper
“However, potential bias due to selective response is unlikely as response rates were high (79–95%), and several of the studies described [1, 27, 42] report good validity of self-report tobacco use in their populations.”

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.
