Selenium Geochemistry and Health
Abstract
Selenium is a naturally occurring metalloid element, which is essential to human and \nother animal health in trace amounts but is harmful in excess. Of all the elements, \nselenium has one of the narrowest ranges between dietary deficiency (< 40 μg day-1) \nand toxic levels (> 400 μg day-1) making it necessary to carefully control intakes by \nhumans and other animals hence the importance of understanding the relationships \nbetween environmental exposure and health

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
The cited source says what the claim attributes to it.
In the citing paper
“a comparison between the average Se content in soils (ranging from 0.01 to 2 mg·kg−1, world mean 0.4 mg·kg−1, [13,83] and the average Se concentration in the Earth’s crust (0.05 mg·kg−1, [84] indicates that a surface source such as atmospheric deposition may play an important role in the global distribution of Se in soils.”

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.
