Depressed Plasma FFA Turnover Rate in Cushing’s Syndrome

BIRKENHÄGER, J. C., TIMMERMANS, H. A. T., LAMBERTS, S. W. J.·1976·The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism

Abstract

The turnover rate of plasma FFA measured by constant infusion of albumin-complexed labeled palmitate in a group of 16 patients with Cushing's syndrome was significantly lower than in a group of 6 controls. Seven patients reexamined after correction of the hypercortisolism showed a normalization of the plasma FFA turnover rate. By contrast, 7 patients with simple obesity had a normal or increased plasma FFA turnover rate depending on the way this parameter is expressed.

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.
