Perspectives in Iron Metabolism

Finch, C. A., Huebers, H.·1982·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

IN early times the earth had a reducing atmosphere, and an abundance of ferrous iron was present for incorporation into biologic molecules.1 Later, with an increase in atmospheric oxygen, iron existed largely in its less available ferric form,2 and special devices had to be developed by life forms for the acquisition of iron. Bacteria, for example, synthesize and excrete high-affinity chelating agents that extract otherwise unavailable iron from the surrounding environment.3 The roots of plants also secrete substances that augment iron absorption.4 In mammalian species a "shuttle" protein in the upper intestine — mucosal transferrin — appears to perform this . . .

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.
