A case of sudden death was reported in a patient suspected to have ingested self-procured LT3.
“We recently reported on a case of sudden death in a patient who was suspected to have ingested self-procured LT3 (21).”

Two fatalities were reported among the case reports of serious adverse events linked to LT3.
“Two fatalities were reported, 1 in a 29-year-old male without a history of hypothyroidism who had self-administered 100 mcg of LT3 daily for 6 months for weight loss purposes (47) and the other in a 42-year-old woman who ingested an unspecified amount of LT3 that had been procured over the internet presumably for fatigue (21).”

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.
