Domain-specific

• Widowhood Effect
  • … and demography: the index event is spousal death; the exposed person is the surviving spouse; the principal endpoint is the survivor's subsequent death; and the characteristic signature is excess mortality that is often largest in the early bereavement interval and may attenuate while remaining detectable later.

Verification

Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.

Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
