Deleterious effect of smoking on healing of open tibia-shaft fractures.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We retrospectively reviewed a prospectively followed cohort of 105 patients with 110 open tibia fractures treated with external fixator or intramedullary nail to determine whether smoking affects fracture healing. Severe open tibia-shaft fractures treated at a tertiary-care medical center were included. Patients with type II, IIIA, or IIIB tibia fractures were eligible. Treatment for all patients was similar, except that they were randomized to receive external fixator or intramedullary nail. Time to fracture healing was the main outcome measurement. Smokers had a union rate of 84% (52/62), and nonsmokers had a union rate of 94% (45/48), P = .10. For smokers in one arm of the study, time to union was significantly longer (P = .01), and there were more complications (P = .04). Smoking decreased unions, slowed healing, and increased complications.

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.
