Reference Intervals for Anion Gap and Strong Ion Difference in Pregnancy: A Pilot Study
Bibliographic record
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Acid-base status and electrolyte levels change in normal pregnancy. We hypothesized that these physiological changes affect both anion gap and strong ion difference (SID). METHODS: A cross-sectional study of normal pregnant women (6 in the first trimester, 47 in the second trimester, 59 in the third trimester, and 13 postpartum). RESULTS: The anion gap in pregnancy (8.5 +/- 2.9 mEq/L) was less, compared to postpartum values (10.7 +/- 2.5 mEq/L), (p < 0.005). The SID, too, was lower (pregnancy, 38.3 +/- 2.9 mEq/L, postpartum 43.5 +/- 2.3 mEq/L, p < 0.001), reflecting the combined influence of changes in albumin, SID, and PCO(2). CONCLUSION: Anion gap and SID both decrease in pregnancy, events which must be taken into account when managing acid-base disorders in gestation.

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.
