Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

OBJECTIVE: To determine the best regimen for using misoprostol after methotrexate in medical abortion with respect to outcome and side effects. STUDY DESIGN: In a cohort study, we compared vaginal misoprostol in one cohort of 134 women who used 800 micrograms dry tablets with 99 women who used 600 micrograms wet and 197 women who used 800 micrograms wet. These cohorts were compared with respect to outcome and side effects. RESULTS: The "dry" group had fewer completed abortions by day 8 (55.2% as compared to 69.7% and 71.1%, P = .008) but similar surgery rates. The dry group also had fewer side effects, especially fever and chills (4.5% as compared to 25.3% and 40.6%, P = .0001) and vomiting (8.2% as compared to 16.2% and 20.3%, P = .01). CONCLUSION: Of the three methods, the one consisting of 600 micrograms of wet misoprostol is the most effective for early completion of abortion and has the fewest side effects.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
