Why this differs from similar rows?

Cites Yagi et al. [1982], powder XRD in a methanol-ethanol medium to 7 GPa (nonhydrostatic above 7.5-9 GPa, only data below 7.5 GPa used); other rows cite different original studies/samples/pressure media.

Evidence from the paper

Table 4: 258 GPa, K'=4, M-E medium, powder, x=0, to 7 GPa, Yagi et al. [1982]. 'Zero-pressure bulk moduli were obtained by fitting Birch or Murnaghan equations of state to P-V data, mostly with the assumption of KT0' = 4.'
