Sources, attribution, and licensing observations
Counts refer to audited-20260928 and were independently recomputed from the exported records. They count assertion rows carrying each source label; multi-source rows contribute to more than one count. The 19 labels consist of 18 upstream labels and one derived conflict label.
This is a source-terms record, not an unrestricted public redistribution license.
verified / verified_terms indicate a located statement, not clearance for every possible use.
pending means the applicable permission has not been established, not that reuse is forbidden.
partial means the located statement does not yet establish the exact downloaded payload's terms.
restricted / restricted_pending_snapshot preserve known qualifications.
Publication licensing and database or supplementary-table licensing may differ.
The earlier source review was dated 2026-09-18. Only HMDB and CTD were refreshed on 2026-09-29 for this packaging task; dates below do not imply a new review of the other providers. See source_terms.json for the machine-readable record and LICENSE for scope.

Source-specific notes
- AGORA2: Repository redirects model downloads to VMH; preserve model attribution and confirm SBML terms.
- BugSigDB: Data licensing section explicitly covers database reuse; preserve attribution and notices.
- CTD: The authors describe free non-commercial availability and a commercial download license. This does not establish unrestricted bulk redistribution of the derived graph.
- Disbiome: Download access and article availability do not establish redistribution rights.
- GMMAD: Database paper located; exact downloaded-table terms still required.
- GMrepo_v3: Confirm terms for the v3 phenotype and abundance exports used here.
- HMDAD: Confirm original association table license.
- HMDB: Commercial restriction verified in current official page text. Exact source snapshot and applicable redistribution permission remain to be confirmed.
- Lit44: Historical source label. Retained assertion evidence contains study identifiers; exact article/supplement terms require per-study review. Full texts are not included.
- MeSH: Acknowledge NLM; no endorsement; identify frozen version (local source desc2026.xml.gz).
- NCBI_Taxonomy: Acknowledge NCBI and retain snapshot/version information; not a blanket license for other NCBI-hosted resources.
- NJC19: Exact upstream dataset and NJC19 archive located; retain Lim et al. 2020 citation.
- Peryton: Confirm downloadable associations terms separately from paper license.
- Piccinno_2025: Confirm license and third-party notices for the exact MaAsLin2/phylogenetic/meta-analysis tables.
- Thomas_2019: Confirm exact supplement identity and reuse terms; not inferred from another article.
- cross_source_conflict: Conflict mining is original processing; underlying evidence remains source-governed.
- gutMDisorder_v2: Freely accessible resource does not establish an unrestricted data license.
- gutMGene: Confirm terms for the three downloaded interaction tables.
- mBodyMap: Confirm terms for phenotype/body-site/species exports.
