In the citing paper
“Current evidence suggests dietary protein intakes in excess of typical population recommendations are required to achieve net protein balance in adolescents and adults following high-intensity exercise.”
From Youth and Adolescent Athlete Musculoskeletal Health: Dietary and Nutritional Strategies to Optimise Injury Prevention and Support Recovery (2024) · cites this paper as [39]
In the citing paper
“That is, the growth observed during adolescence is likely a consequence of greater anabolic sensitivity to and utilisation of dietary amino acids, and that no additional protein intakes (beyond those for adult athletes) are required [39].”
From Youth and Adolescent Athlete Musculoskeletal Health: Dietary and Nutritional Strategies to Optimise Injury Prevention and Support Recovery (2024) · cites this paper as [39]
In the citing paper
“However, research suggests that adolescents may have greater anabolic sensitivity compared to adults, meaning their protein needs may not be as high as those of their adult counterparts [39].”
From Youth and Adolescent Athlete Musculoskeletal Health: Dietary and Nutritional Strategies to Optimise Injury Prevention and Support Recovery (2024) · cites this paper as [39]
In the citing paper
“Distributing protein intake throughout the day (e.g., 0.3 g/kg BM across five meals and snacks) provides the necessary EAAs to minimise muscle loss and support healing [39,61,68].”
From Youth and Adolescent Athlete Musculoskeletal Health: Dietary and Nutritional Strategies to Optimise Injury Prevention and Support Recovery (2024) · cites this paper as [39]
In the citing paper
“In a study by Mazzulla et al., whole-body net protein balance plateaued at ~0.30 g/kg post-exercise in adolescents aged 14–18 years (n = 13), indicating no additional benefit from higher doses.”

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.
