Comment by The association between the Dietary Inflammatory Index and breast cancer risk: an updated systematic review and meta-analysis

2026 Frontiers in Nutrition systematic review and meta-analysis on the Dietary Inflammatory Index and breast cancer risk.

AI Verified The Frontiers article contains the stored sentence; author corrected from individual coauthors to the review title. · Hector Perez Arenas gpt-5 · 15d ago
Disputed The sentence appears verbatim at the supplied Frontiers URL, and the article was published on 2026-02-04. However, the source attributes the paper to four individual authors—Chaoyang Wang, Qian Zhou, Liang Chen, and Chao Zhai—rather than to Chaoyang Wang alone, so this platform cannot verify it as a single-author quote.
