Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Interleukin-8 (IL-8) is a central chemokine in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), and the IL-8 gene contains a functional single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) -251A/T in its promoter region. We hypothesized that IL-8 -251A/T SNP is associated with PaO(2)/FiO(2) in critically ill patients. METHODS: We conducted genetic-association studies in intensive care units at academic teaching centres using a derivation septic shock cohort (vasopressin and septic shock trial (VASST), n = 467) and a validation post-cardiopulmonary bypass surgery cohort (CPB, n = 739) of Caucasian patients. Patients in both cohorts were genotyped for IL-8 -251A/T. The primary outcome variable in both cohorts was the fraction of patients who had a PaO(2) /FiO(2) < 200. IL-8 mRNA expression was measured in genotyped lymphoblastoid cells in vitro. RESULTS: The frequency of the patients with PaO(2)/FiO(2) <200 was significantly greater in patients who had the AA genotype of -251A/T than in patients who had the AT or TT genotypes in both VASST (AA = 60.8% vs AT and TT = 53.8% and 48.0%, P = 0.038) and the CPB cohort (AA = 37.0% vs AT and TT = 27.0% and 26.0%, P = 0.039). Patients having the AA genotype had a higher probability to remain on mechanical ventilation (P = 0.047) in the first 14 days. Lymphoblastoid cells having the AA genotype had significantly higher IL-8 mRNA expression than cells having the AT or TT genotype (P = 0.022). CONCLUSIONS: Critically ill Caucasian patients who had the AA genotype of IL-8 -251A/T had an increased risk of PaO(2)/FiO(2) <200. The AA genotype was associated with greater IL-8 mRNA expression than the AT or TT genotypes.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
