Severe undernutrition in growing and adult animals: 9. The effect of undernutrition and its relief on the mechanical properties of bone
Open accessAbstract
It is generally accepted that age affects the properties and composition of bone but it is not really clear from the papers of McCay, Crowell & Maynard (1935), McCay, Maynard, Sperling & Barnes (1939), or in the account by McCay (1942) whether the abnormalities in the bones described by them were the result of undernutrition or of old age.Undernutrition in young growing animals has a profound effect upon the structure of the bones (Pratt & McCance, 1960) and alters their chemical composition (Dickerson & McCance, 1961).It has also been found to produce bones which break up easily and splinter during cleaning.A series of bones from undernourished animals has, therefore, been subjected to the procedures described some time ago for studying their breaking stress and elasticity (Bell, Cuthbertson & Orr, 1941; Weir, Bell & Chambers, 1949).The same bones have been analysed for water and ash and the results are reported in this paper.

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.
