“For instance, a significant decrease in birthweight was observed in the most deprived areas, in comparison with the least deprived (Beta = –113.4 g (95%CI [ –133.0; –93.8]) [51].”

In the citing paper
“Most studies investigating the effect of socioeconomic conditions (measured at the neighborhood level on birthweight) confirmed the existence of social and territorial health inequalities [32,39,43,51,53,57].”

“In terms of birthweight, most studies (all but two [33,42]) revealed a socioeconomic relationship to PTB outcome [28,34,36,39,40,46,51].”

In the citing paper
“Several studies suggest an association between pregnancy outcomes and such structural determinants as neighborhood-level deprivation [34,39,40,46,51,53] or neighborhood unemployment rate [53].”

“Furthermore, the risk is higher among the most deprived groups, compared with the most privileged groups (OR = 1.5;95%CI [1.3;1.7]), for 1991–2000) [51].”

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.
