Abstract
BACKGROUND: In vivo video microscopy has been used to study blood flow regulation as a function of varying oxygen concentration in microcirculatory networks. However, previous studies have measured the collective response of stimulating large areas of the microvascular network at the tissue surface. OBJECTIVE: We aimed to limit the area being stimulated by controlling oxygen availability to highly localized regions of the microvascular bed within intact muscle. DESIGN AND METHOD: Gas of varying O(2) levels was delivered to specific locations on the surface of the Extensor Digitorum Longus muscle of rat through a set of micro-outlets (100 μm diameter) patterned in ultrathin glass using state-of-the-art microfabrication techniques. O(2) levels were oscillated and digitized video sequences were processed for changes in capillary hemodynamics and erythrocyte O(2) saturation. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS: Oxygen saturations in capillaries positioned directly above the micro-outlets were closely associated with the controlled local O(2) oscillations. Radial diffusion from the micro-outlet is limited to ~75 μm from the center as predicted by computational modeling and as measured in vivo. These results delineate a key step in the design of a novel micro-delivery device for controlled oxygen delivery to the microvasculature to understand the fundamental mechanisms of microvascular regulation of O(2) supply.

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
