The Parathyroid Glands and Metabolic Bone Disease

Open access
WILKINS, LAWSON·1949·Pediatrics

Abstract

About 25 years ago Fuller Albright became interested in disorders of the parathyroid glands and other conditions disturbing calcium and phosphorus metabolism. It was in 1925 that the first parathyroid adenoma was removed in Vienna and in 1924 and 1925 that Hanson and Collip independently extracted the active principle of the parathyroid glands. Since this time Albright and a long retinue of coworkers have turned out a large number of classic papers clarifying the understanding of the actions of parathyroid hormone, vitamin D and dihydrotachysterol, the effects of various renal disorders upon phosphorus and calcium, and the nature of bone diseases such as osteitis fibrosa generalisata, osteoporosis, osteomalacia, Paget's disease and polyostatic fibrous dysplasia. The new monograph presents in clear and concise form the accumulation of a quarter century of investigations and gives Albright's views as they stand today.

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.
