THE SIGNIFICANCE OF PLACE IN JOHN MUIR'S WRITINGS ABOUT WILDERNESS
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We applied the low-dose challenge (chronic) and reactivation following chemotherapy withdrawal (Cornell-like) TB models to mouse strains with genetically different susceptibility to and severity of Mycobacterium tuberculosis-triggered disease. Systemic infection caused by intravenous (i.v.) administration of approximately 70 cfus of M. tuberculosis H37Rv lead to chronic, persistent, non-lethal disease in genetically resistant B6 mice, but resulted in a fatal pathological process in the lungs of susceptible I/St animals. Thus, application of the identical experimental approach to genetically different murine hosts allows investigating both slowly progressive disease with the fatal outcome (I/St) and chronic life-span disease (B6). Under Cornell-like model conditions, both temporary eradication of cultivable bacilli from lungs and spleens due to chemotherapy and their re-appearance in organs following its withdrawal were demonstrated in mice of both strains. However, (i) reactivation occurred significantly earlier in I/St than in B6 mice; (ii) I/St mice survived not more than 6 month following chemotherapy withdrawal and demonstrated 100% TB relapse, whereas in B6 mice mortality did not exceed 50%, and no mycobacteria were recovered from some animals. I/St mice, with their genetically determined high TB severity, provide a more reliable tool for modeling TB relapse after chemotherapy withdrawal than mice of more resistant strains.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
