Factors associated with the incidence of bacterial gill disease in salmonid lots reared in Ontario, Canada government hatcheries
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Bacterial gill disease (BGD) (causative agent: Flavobacterium branchiophilum) has been a persistent problem in early-rearing salmonids in the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources (OMNR) fish hatchery system. Retrospective epidemiological investigations of BGD diagnoses and treatments in OMNR fish hatcheries during the period 1991-2001 were conducted using University of Guelph Fish Health Laboratory and OMNR central office data. All investigations were conducted at the lot-level, which is the major within-hatchery-level of population aggregation. Survivorship of BGD diagnosis in early-rearing lots within seven individual hatcheries ranged from 84.2 to 100%; within individual species groups, survivorship was lowest (84.6%) in brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) lots. Annual risk percentages (cumulative incidence) for BGD diagnosis within hatchery and species groups varied considerably among years. Multivariable proportional hazards survival analysis indicated that the species brook trout, and the Spring (March-May) season, were significantly associated with treatment for BGD. Combined, these results emphasize the importance of hatchery, species, and time on the development of BGD. Future observational research on this disease must consider these factors in their design and analysis.

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.
