Gastrointestinal Absorption of Aluminum from Aluminum-Containing Antacids

Kaehny, William D., Hegg, Arlene P., Alfrey, Allen C.·1977·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

Specific tissue burdens of aluminum have been found to be increased in a number of conditions, and evidence has been presented that aluminum may be neurotoxic.1 , 2 The source of the aluminum has not been defined. An extensive review of biologic aspects of aluminum found no evidence to support absorption of orally administered aluminum compounds.3 Berlyne et al. indicated that serum aluminum levels did rise in uremic patients who ingested aluminumcycle resins.4 However, no definitive studies of changes in plasma and urinary levels in normal persons who ingest aluminum have been reported.Previous attempts to evaluate gastrointestinal absorption of aluminum were . . .

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.
