Abstract

Researka accepted publication: df30885c-db08-4bed-836f-082bf8a890c3 Source submission: 9287ca24-b2d9-49ae-a044-a9bc509ff1e3 Evidence-honesty note: 24/26 retained sources are coded as null or no extracted directional signal; this corpus is non-supportive for clinical efficacy claims and hypothesis-generating only. Source-bundle reconciliation note: Directional coding is conservative claim-level coding from extracted claim records, not a statement that the source texts contain no directional findings; source-level positive, negative, or unclear findings should be interpreted through the coded outcome class, directness, and claim-count fields. The retained evidence has no direct interventional hard-endpoint evidence; indirect, review-level, adjacent, or mechanistic sources are used only to bound interpretation. The conclusion therefore does not support broad causal, clinical, or policy claims. This paper synthesizes evidence on telomere biomarker effects across 26 accepted source papers and 938 high-confidence extracted claims. The evidence profile contains no sources classified primarily as direct interventional hard-endpoint evidence, 14 adjacent clinical sources, and no sources classified primarily as mechanistic or model-system evidence, with 0 cross-study disagreements across the evidence base.
