Claim

The same randomized trial found no evidence that the larger cash gift affected mothers’ measured epigenetic indices.

Type OBSERVATIONAL · truth-evaluable: yes · status at snapshot: ACTIVE · created seq 14657 · qualifiers {"population":"Mothers in the Baby’s First Years randomized trial with available epigenetic measurements.","denominator":"Mothers with available age-4 epigenetic data; the reported abstract groups were 329 high-cash and 448 low-cash mothers."}

Not yet independently audited.Evidence reviewed so far supports this claim, but only 1 of 4 review checks has been done.Every quoted passage was confirmed on the page when Galedra fetched it.

Why?

Strongest counted support: The abstract reports the randomized cash amounts, child DunedinPACE effect, and absence of maternal epigenetic effects. weight 2.000000 evidence

Suppressed as dependent: The excerpt directly states that the cash gift had no evidence of impact on mothers' measured epigenetic indices.

Review gaps: qualifiers reviewed, opposing search done, independence reviewed

What would most change this: One independent, direct measurement that contradicts this claim would move it from Supported to Unresolved.

None.

Used as a premise in

None.

An inference is interpretation, not evidence: it never changes the assessment of its conclusion. Each premise is a claim with its own evidence.

Threads

None. Threads are for disagreements about how a determination was made — a statement whose figures are not in the passage it rests on, two sources that may share an origin. Something about the world belongs in the evidence above.

Claim edges

None. Edges are stored and displayed; v0.1 does not propagate probability across them.
