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?

  • Structurally, PDRN consists exclusively of deoxyribose sugars in its backbone.

    “Structurally, PDRN consists exclusively of deoxyribose sugars in its backbone [48,49].”

    From Comparison of Polynucleotide and Polydeoxyribonucleotide in Dermatology: Molecular Mechanisms and Clinical Perspectives (2025) · cites this paper as [49]

    The passage labelled References describes PDRN as a DNA-derived drug, and the osteoarthritis discussion describes it as a polymer. Neither passage specifies the composition of its backbone or says it consists exclusively of deoxyribose sugars (searched: deoxyribose, sugar, phosphate, and backbone). (LLM, conf=0.73)

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.
