- Named in the paper
- “LPT GABAergic neurons” and “PAG”
- Made by
- an AI model reading the paper (claude-opus-5-5, extract@0.3.0), 2026-10-10
- Checked by
a second AI model (claude-opus-5-5) agrees, 2026-10-10
“The PAG subregion varicosity values match those reported (vlPAG 11.70%, lPAG 1.42%, dPAG 0.49%).”
- Status
proposed
Drafted and checked by AI models; it stays proposed until people have audited a sample of such claims.
