Starvation in Man
Abstract
ALTHOUGH it has been known for over a century that fat is the principal storage form of energy, only in the past two decades have the physiologic mechanisms for its deposition and mobilization been partially clarified. Benedict,1 in his classic study on Mr. L., a normal man who over 50 years ago fasted experimentally for 30 days, noted that fat provided more than 75 per cent of the calories utilized after the first few days of food deprivation. He also observed a progressive decrease in daily urinary nitrogen excretion that suggested an increasing conservation of body protein. In this review . . .

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.
