  • With the exception of the connecting channels, the four types of channels are invisible and imperceptible to touch; most are considered to be experienced through meditation.

    “With the exception of the connecting channels, these channels are invisible and imperceptible to touch; rather, most of them are considered to be experienced through meditation.”
  • Tibetan medicine differentiates four types of 'channels': growth channels, channels of existence, connecting channels, and lifetime channels.

    “Tibetan medicine differentiates four types of 'channels' ( rtsa ): (1) 'growth channels' ( chags pa'i rtsa ), (2) 'channels of existence' ( srid pa'i rtsa ), (3) 'connecting channels' ( 'brel ba'i rtsa ), and (4) 'lifetime channels' ( tshe yi rtsa ).”
  • All of the four types of channels are macroanatomical structures.

    “but it is important to note that all of them are macroanatomical structures.”

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.
