D-Lactic Acidosis in a Man with the Short-Bowel Syndrome
Abstract
WE have recently studied a patient who had short-bowel syndrome that presented with peculiar neurologic manifestations and severe metabolic acidosis. The anion gap was increased, but the identity of the abnormal anion was not readily apparent. By several chemical technics the agent responsible for metabolic acidosis was found to be D-lactic acid — a cause of metabolic acidosis familiar to veterinarians but not to physicians.Case HistoryThe patient, a 30-year-old man, was in good health until July, 1975, when a superior mesenteric-vein thrombosis of unknown cause resulted in gangrene of most of the small intestine. After emergency jejunoileostomy with . . .

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.
