Data confidence 85 high
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

A series of silicon carbonitride ceramics is utilized to obtain hierarchically porous carbide-derived carbons (CDCs) for cytokine removal. The removal rate of TNF-α and IL-6, as two examples of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines, is proportional to the surface area of pores larger than the size of the protein molecule.
