Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Lean mass loss was slightly greater in the 4:3 model (between-group difference: 1.2 kg), but there was no specific resistance training assignment in this trial, and protein intake in both groups was low (15% of total kcal; ~0.6 g/kg).

    “Lean mass loss was slightly greater in the 4:3 model (between-group difference: 1.2 kg), but there was no specific resistance training assignment in this trial, and protein intake in both groups was low (15% of total kcal; ~0.6 g/kg).”

    From International Society of Sports Nutrition position stand: diets for body weight reduction (2026) · cites this paper as [74]

    Methods > Randomization and Interventions (page unavailable) specifies a 15%-protein dietary target for both groups and a moderate-intensity aerobic activity recommendation, but no specific resistance-training assignment. Results > Body Weight and Composition (page unavailable) describes body-composition estimates as imprecise; the text does not give the claimed 1.2 kg lean-mass difference. Nor does it establish that actual protein intake in both groups was 15% of calories or approximately 0.6 g/kg. (LLM, conf=0.86)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured

  • A 12-month trial by Catenacci et al. reported greater weight loss with a 4:3 model (3 weekly modified fasting days; ~20% of maintenance needs) versus daily caloric restriction in adults with overweight or obesity; the between-group weight loss difference was 2.89 kg in favor of the 4:3 model.

    “Recently, a 12-month trial by Catenacci et al. [74] reported greater weight loss with a 4:3 model (3 weekly modified fasting days; ~20% of maintenance needs) versus daily caloric restriction in adults with overweight or obesity. The between-group weight loss difference was 2.89 kg in favor of the 4:3 model.”

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.
