Why this differs from similar rows?
He-medium fit with KT0 fixed to 160.2 GPa for direct comparison with Speziale et al. (2001), instead of fitting KT0 freely as in sibling He-medium rows.

Evidence from the paper
For comparison with Speziale et al. (2001), who fixed KT0 = 160.2 GPa, we obtain V0 = 74.695(6) GPa and K' = 3.709(8) with fixed KT0 = 160.2 GPa.
