Effect of single loading dose of intravenous caffeine infusion on superior mesenteric artery blood flow velocities in preterm infants
Bibliographic record
Abstract
AIM: To evaluate the effects of a single loading dose of caffeine base (10 mg/kg) on superior mesenteric artery (SMA) blood flow velocities (BFV). METHODS: Eighteen preterm infants of gestational age <or=32 weeks gestation were investigated prospectively. SMA BFV before infusion, 1 h, 2 h and 6 h after a single loading dose of caffeine were measured using Doppler ultrasonography. RESULTS: The peak systolic velocity in SMA decreased by 18% from baseline at 1 h after caffeine infusion and improved towards the baseline by 6 h after the infusion. The reduction in velocity after caffeine infusion was not statistically significant. No significant changes were observed in heart rate, blood pressure and incidence of necrotising enterocolitis. CONCLUSION: A single 10 mg/kg intravenous loading dose of caffeine does not cause a significant reduction in SMA BFV and therefore does not place the preterm intestine at increased risk of ischemic injury.

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.
