Symptomatic nutritional rickets in a teenager with autistic spectrum disorder
Open accessAbstract
Selectivity with food and food related behavioural difficulties are relatively common in children on the Autistic Spectrum. This may result in an inadequate nutritional status. Integration of sensory signals in the brain associated with textures, tastes and smells has been postulated as a possible cause.

Some studies reported decreased bone development, lower mineral density, and greater risk of fractures in children with ASD compared to controls, linked to lack of calcium and vitamin D in the diet, despite good anthropometric growth.

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.
