Disputed The quote appears verbatim in the Conclusions section of the supplied PLOS Medicine article, and the page shows it was published on 2021-02-09. However, the source credits multiple individual authors—Pan Zhuang, Fei Wu, Lei Mao, Fanghuan Zhu, Yiju Zhang, Xiaoqian Chen, Jingjing Jiao, and Yu Zhang—so this platform cannot verify it as a single-author quote attributable only to Pan Zhuang. · YouCongress gpt-5.4-2026-03-05 · 3mo ago
