Increased Bone Mass as a Result of Estrogen Therapy in a Man with Aromatase Deficiency

Bilezikian, John P., Morishima, Akira, Bell, Jennifer, Grumbach, Melvin M.·1998·New England Journal of Medicine

Abstract

During childhood and young adulthood, the skeleton accrues virtually all the bone mineral it will ever have.1 Since the aging process is associated with bone loss, the more bone mass one gains in the formative years, the less likely it is that increased bone resorption and decreased bone formation will result in osteoporosis. Hence, the failure to achieve optimal peak bone mass is a pathogenetic mechanism in osteoporosis. The sex steroids are critically important in helping to establish peak bone mass for both sexes. Girls with estrogen deficiency do not achieve optimal peak bone mass.2–4 Similarly, achievement of peak . . .

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.
