Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Prediction of long term survival outcomes for melanoma patients is not only critical clinically for patient management but also highly valuable for patient risk stratification in evaluation of new melanoma therapies in clinical trials.For patients with primary melanoma (PM), the most widely used current prognostic factors include Breslow tumor thickness, Clark level of invasion for thin melanomas, mitotic index, and ulceration status.For metastatic melanoma (MM) patients, there are no well established prognostic systems, although the extent of metastasis (local regional versus visceral) and serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels (Balch et al., 2009) were known to influence patients' survival.In general, the prognostication achieved using these methods are imprecise, especially for patients with lymph node and distant metastasis.Alpha 1 antichymotrypsin, a serine protease inhibitor (serpin), was found to be aberrantly expressed in tissues of MM during gene expression profiling experiments (Zhou et al., 2005), and in serum of xenografted mice carrying human MM cell line (Kondo and Ohsawa,

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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.
