Colon Cancer and Dietary Fat, Phosphate, and Calcium: A Hypothesis
Abstract
Increased dietary fat was suggested to promote colon cancer by increasing the levels of free ionized fatty acids and bile acids in the colon contents. In the presence of calcium ions the irritating and toxic effects of the free acids on colon epithelial cells could be reduced by being converted to insoluble calcium soaps. The level of supplementary dietary calcium to supply adequate calcium and thus reduce the potential toxicity of dietary fat was considered.

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.
