Claim

In the U.S. oncology-trial analysis, ZIP codes in the lowest median-income tercile had significantly lower trial success rates than ZIP codes in the middle and highest income terciles; the lowest-versus-highest comparison reported p < 0.0001 and OR 1.13 [1.10–1.16].

Main unresolved issue: 2 counted evidence items have no independence review; repeats of one origin may be counted as several coverage:859ef10c-0967-8d35-91fb-87fb694ea995

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 lowest-income tercile had significantly lower success rates, with the lowest-versus-highest comparison p < 0.0001 and OR 1.13 [1.10–1.16]. weight 1.800000 evidence

Suppressed as dependent: The passage directly reports lower success in low-income ZIP-code terciles and the stated p-value and odds ratio comparison.

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.

How the number was reached

Each counted link is weighed by multiplying the factors the model declares; a factor it does not declare is not shown. Every factor name below links to what that number means.

prior 0.50 → log-odds 0.000000 + 1.800000 (the counted weights) = 1.800000 → probability 0.8581

Under neighbouring settings of the same model: 0.7790 to 0.9121, a spread of 0.1331.

Half-even rounding, six places for weights and four for the probability. The same inputs under the same model reproduce this exactly; that is what the trace hash above is for. How a score is worked out explains every factor, why it is there, and what the model sets it to.

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.

Review checklist

Review checks: 1 of 4

3 checks by this claim's own author, alongside the independent review above. 1 OPPOSING EVIDENCE SEARCH · 1 QUALIFIER CHECK · 1 EVIDENCE VERIFICATION. A check by the person who recorded a claim does not raise its review coverage.
