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?
The source backs part of the claim, not all of it — or backs it for a different population, condition or comparison.
In the citing paper
“This model also reports the best scores on the NLG metrics as well as improvements of +7.59% on factENT and +14.2% on factENTNLI over Miura et al. (2021).”

“Secondly, these systems that achieve high performance on NLG metrics are not always factually complete or consistent due to both inadequate training and evaluation of these systems.”

In the citing paper
“In contrast, the generation of complete narrative radiology reports11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,21 moves past that simplification and is consistent with how radiologists communicate diagnostic information: the narrative report allows for highly diverse and nuanced findings, including association of findings with anatomic location, and expressions of uncertainty.”

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.
