Risk Factors for the Development of Cholelithiasis in Man: (Second of Two Parts)
Abstract
Conditions Associated with Pigment StonesThe demographic characteristics of persons at high risk for pigment gallstones differ from those in whom cholesterol stones are likely to develop, as noted in Table 1. Pigment stones are notably rare among American Indians, who have very high rates of cholesterol cholelithiasis,49-51 and whereas cholesterol gallstones predominate in Northern Europe52 and North and South America,53-56 pigment stones are more prevalent in the rural Orient.37,56,57 In Japan, however, the pattern has been shifting over the past several decades, with pigment stones becoming less, and cholesterol stones more, frequent.58-60 This shift has . . .

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.
