Mechanisms¶
- Error Bar
- An unlabelled bar is meaningless — SD, SE, and CI look identical but say different things, and the smallest can be chosen to flatter.
This sourceRequires figure legends to identify what error bars represent because SD, SE, and confidence intervals convey different information.

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.
