Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Recent guidelines recommend strict goals for low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) (70-100 mg/dL; 1.8-2.6 mmol/L). These goals were set following the publication of several trials. In the current issue of the journal, a study compares different doses of the combination tablet (ezetimibe/simvastatin) with statin monotherapy (rosuvastatin). In keeping with previous literature, the combination therapy was more effective in achieving LDL-C goals. This editorial comments on the potential disadvantages of using monotherapy with high-dose statins and considers the issue of statin-induced proteinuria. Combination therapy may need to be increasingly used to achieve the LDL-C targets set by recent guidelines.

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.
