Does the press release say more than the study?

We checked the NIH's. Every US National Institutes of Health news release since February 2023 that cites its paper by DOI, with its headline and opening sentences compared with the paper's conclusion. Where a sentence says more than the paper, Claude suggests a faithful rewrite and Decider checks it.

85 releases checked against their papers
15% had a sentence the gate would block
67% of Claude's suggested rewrites pass Decider's check

How to read this. A flag is a 2-billion-parameter model's reading of claim strength, not a finding of wrongdoing. The paper's own words sit beside every flag so you can judge. NIH releases are US-government works in the public domain; papers are linked by DOI. Headlines scored – on average against the other sentences, so NIH headlines were no hotter than their body text .
