Abstract
BACKGROUND: Commercial intact parathyroid hormone (I-PTH) assays detect molecular form(s) of human PTH, non-(1-84) PTH, different from the 84-amino acid native molecule. These molecular form(s) accumulate in hemodialyzed patients. We investigated the importance of non-(1-84) PTH in the interpretation of the increased I-PTH in progressive renal failure. METHODS: Five groups were studied: 26 healthy individuals, 12 hemodialyzed patients, and 31 patients with progressive renal failure subdivided according to their glomerular filtration rate (GFR) into 11 with a GFR between 60 and 100 mL. min(-1). 1.73 m(-2), 12 with a GFR between 30 and 60 mL. min(-1). 1.73 m(-2), and 8 with a GFR between 5 and 30 mL. min(-1). 1.73 m(-2). We evaluated indicators of calcium and phosphorus metabolism and creatinine clearance (CrCl) in the progressive renal failure groups, and the HPLC profile of I-PTH and C-terminal PTH in all groups. RESULTS: Only patients with a GFR <30 mL. min(-1). 1.73 m(-2) and hemodialyzed patients had decreased Ca(2+) and 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D, and increased phosphate. In patients with progressive renal failure, I-PTH was related to Ca(2+) (r = -0.66; P <0.0001), CrCl (r = -0.61; P <0.001), 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D (r = -0.40; P <0.05), and 25-hydroxyvitamin D (r = -0.49; P <0.01) by simple linear regression. The importance of non-(1-84) PTH in the composition of I-PTH increased with each GFR decrease, being 21% in healthy individuals, 32% in progressive renal failure patients with a GFR <30 mL. min(-1). 1.73 m(-2), and 50% in hemodialyzed patients, with PTH(1-84) making up the difference. CONCLUSIONS: As I-PTH increases progressively with GFR decrease, part of the increase is associated with the accumulation of non-(1-84) PTH, particularly when the GFR is <30 mL. min(-1). 1.73 m(-2). Concentrations of I-PTH 1.6-fold higher than in healthy individuals are necessary in hemodialyzed patients to achieve PTH(1-84) concentrations similar to those in the absence of renal failure.

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
