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?

  • Seven of the ten mosquito species found are known or thought to transmit Dirofilaria spp.

    “Seven of all ten species found had been proven or thought to transmit Dirofilaria spp. (Ae. vexans, An. maculipennis complex, An. plumbeus, Cq. richardii, Cx. pipiens/torrentium, Cs. longiareolata, Oc. caspius), and accounted for 202 individuals (98.5%).”
  • The screening for microfilariae in native blood smears shows a sensitivity of 80-89%.

    “As the screening for microfilariae in native blood smears shows a sensitivity of 80–89%, this outcome might be due to occult infections, infection with male worms only, or, even more likely, applied prophylactic microfilaricidal therapy [15,33], as was reported from all animal shelters in this study.”

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.
