Hypercalcemia in an Anephric Patient with Sarcoidosis: Evidence for Extrarenal Generation of 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D

Barbour, Galen L., Coburn, Jack W., Slatopolsky, Eduardo, Norman, Anthony W., Horst, Ronald L.·1981·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

HYPERCALCEMIA can occur in up to 10 per cent of patients with sarcoidosis.1 , 2 During the active phase of the disease, increased absorption of calcium from the intestine leads to hypercalciuria and occasionally hypercalcemia. The increased absorption of calcium is presumed to be secondary to increased sensitivity to vitamin D,3 and it may be decreased or abolished by the development of concomitant renal failure.4 Recent reports have identified elevated circulating levels of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (1,25-[OH]2D) in hypercalcemic patients with sarcoidosis, and it has been suggested that such patients produce increased amounts of 1,25-(OH)2D3 from vitamin D. . . .

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.
