Lack of an effect of vitamin E on lifespan of mice
Abstract
It has been speculated that ageing results from accumulation of damage to macromolecules, particularly DNA, owing to the action of oxidising free radicals. This possibility would predict that administration of anti-oxidants might prolong lifespan, but previous data on this prediction are conflicting. Three groups of mice were exposed throughout life, from the time of conception until death, to 20, 40 and 400 mg/kg of vitamin E in the diet. No effect on lifespan was observed and the median lifespans in the three groups were 804, 830 and 801 days, respectively. The design of the study also enabled an effect of parental age on lifespan of female progeny to be sought, but no effect was detected.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
