Hypercalcemia Associated with Cancer
Abstract
A 47-year-old woman with a history of breast cancer presents with confusion and dehydration. The serum calcium level is 18.0 mg per deciliter. She has postural hypotension and low central venous pressure. The serum phosphorus level is 5.0 mg per deciliter, the blood urea nitrogen level 80 mg per deciliter, the serum creatinine level 2.0 mg per deciliter, and the albumin level 3.3 g per deciliter. Bone scintigraphy reveals no evidence of skeletal involvement by the tumor. How should she be treated?

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.
