Abstract
OBJECTIVE: We describe a systematic approach to modeling blood flow using reconstructed capillary networks and in vivo hemodynamic measurements. Our goal was to produce flow solutions that represent convective O(2) delivery in vivo. METHODS: Two capillary networks, I and II (84 × 168 × 342 and 70 × 157 × 268 μm(3)), were mapped using custom software. Total network red blood cell supply rate (SR) was calculated from in vivo data and used as a target metric for the flow model. To obtain inlet hematocrits, mass balances were applied recursively from downstream vessels. Pressure differences across the networks were adjusted to achieve target SR. Baseline flow solutions were used as inputs to existing O(2) transport models. To test the impact of flow redistribution, asymmetric flow solutions (Asym) were generated by applying a ± 20% pressure change to network outlets. RESULTS: Asym solutions produced a mean absolute difference in SR per capillary of 27.6 ± 33.3% in network I and 33.2 ± 40.1% in network II vs. baseline. The O(2) transport model calculated mean tissue PO(2) of 28.2 ± 4.8 and 28.1 ± 3.5 mmHg for baseline and 27.6 ± 5.2 and 27.7 ± 3.7 mmHg for Asym. CONCLUSIONS: This outcome illustrates that moderate changes in flow distribution within a capillary network have little impact on tissue PO(2) provided that total SR remains unchanged.

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
