Pregnancy and lactation at early age is known to have a small protective effect against breast cancer.
“From epidemiological studies, pregnancy and lactation at early age is known to have a small protective effect against breast cancer (Kelsey and Gammon, 1991).”
From Endocytosis and Physiology: Insights from Disabled-2 Deficient Mice (2016) · cites this paper as Kelsey and Gammon, 1991
No passage from our copy matched the claim. Searches for early pregnancy, age at first birth, lactation, and breastfeeding returned no passages, so the claimed protective effect cannot be verified from our copy. (LLM, conf=0.70)

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.
