I note from that web site :-

"As a library, NLM provides access to scientific literature. Inclusion
in an NLM database does not imply endorsement of, or agreement with, the
contents by NLM or the National Institutes of Health."

so despite it being a "gov" web site the article was simply published
on-line with no checking or reviews.
