Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

To assess maternal versus paternal contributions to the familial aggregation of hypertension, we examined family history data from 344 hypertensive probands (69 African American, 153 US Caucasian, 122 Greek Caucasian) ascertained without respect to parental hypertension status. The proportion of hypertensive mothers (81.7, 65.0 and 84.8% for African Americans, US Caucasians and Greek Caucasians, respectively) of these probands was significantly greater than the proportion of hypertensive fathers (50.0, 44.9 and 48.3%, respectively) in all three ethnic groups. The lifetime risk of hypertension was significantly greater for mothers compared with fathers of these hypertensive probands (p<0.001). Examination of the proband's siblings indicated that maternal history of hypertension was associated with greater lifetime risk for hypertension than paternal history (p<0.01). In conclusion, we observe a consistent maternal component in the inheritance of hypertension. Although we cannot separate a maternal genetic from epigenetic or environmental effect, our findings suggest that genetic research should include studies of the mitochondrial as well as nuclear genome. Furthermore, when assessing a patient's risk for hypertension, particular attention should be paid to the maternal family history.

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.
