Effect of Glucagon on Food Intake and Body Weight in Man
Abstract
A series of 10 patients was studied for a 5-week period to note the effect of glucagon on food intake and body weight. The first week was spent in learning their food preferences and judging the usual range of intake. This was followed by two periods, each of 2 weeks' duration during which the drugs were administered. Glucagon was administered for one of these two periods. The dose was 1 mg administered intramuscularly 10 minutes prior to each meal. A placebo solution was administered in an identical manner during the other period. The study was performed in a completely ‘blind’ manner. There was a highly significant diminution in caloric intake while receiving glucagon. The average difference in daily caloric intake was 440 calories. The difference in weight for the two experimental periods was also significant. Submitted on June 16, 1957

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.
