Experiments
Searchable full-text extractions: founding hypothesis, core claims, experimental setups, key results and statistics — pulled out of each paper as structure. Search a cell line, an assay or an entity (e.g. HUH7) and find every paper that worked with it. This corpus stands on its own: most entries carry no reproduction assessment (yet).

Gene-environment interaction and obesity.
PMID 19019037 · PMC3683966 · Nutrition reviews · 2008 · 8 claims · 8 setups
Obesity susceptibility is largely genetically determined but requires environmental exposure (excess energy intake, low fiber, physical inactivity) to manifest phenotypically.
