Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The linear sequence of genetic alterations illustrated in the Vogelstein model provides a readily understandable illustration of the fundamental principles underlying colorectal tumorigenesis. However, it is now clear that colorectal cancer is a multi-pathway disease. In this review, the concept that inactivation of the tumor suppressor gene APC serves to initiate virtually all colorectal cancers is shown to be an oversimplification. APC inactivation may have important tumorigenic pathogenic effects beyond the mere initiation of precancerous adenomas. Furthermore, the early evolution of colorectal neoplasia must sometimes occur by mechanisms other than inactivation of APC or related alterations that would drive dysregulated Wnt pathway signaling. Oncogenic mutations implicating both BRAF and KRAS are highlighted as alternative initiating steps that synergize with DNA methylation and occur within the context of serrated polyps. CRC comprises subgroups with particular clinical, pathological, and molecular features.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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.
