Identity and Disambiguation (Caveat)

This identity is disambiguated at medium-high confidence (about 90 percent). The study's "Shiraishi M" is the Juntendo graduate: co-author on the 3-paper Juntendo-Giombini cluster (PMIDs 17261552, 17942453, 24137088; 2007-2008), with the full forename "Minoru" on the two fetched cluster papers. OpenAlex's study-record attribution names "Minoru Shiraishi" (Jikei University School of Medicine) - the Jikei association is plausible for a doctorate-era alumnus but cannot be confirmed: the Jikei "Shiraishi M" active in PubMed today (13 papers, 2021-2026, radiology) is Megumi Shiraishi, a different person (forename verified on PMIDs 42423928, 32885378). The OpenAlex author profile A5110491284 ("Minoru Shiraishi", 181 works, h-index 26) is polluted with unrelated namesake works (Japanese linguistics, materials science) and is not used for bibliometrics. No clean OpenAlex or PubMed corpus exists for this individual.
