Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The use of flaxseed (linseed) to combat breast cancer has attracted increased attention since the preliminary results of a clinical study were presented in the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium in December 2000. One of the most often quoted implications of the study was that the anti-tumour effect of flaxseed muffin may be comparable to that of tamoxifen. However, flax-seed also contains secoisolariciresinol diglycoside (SDG), which is converted by the gut bacteria into the oestrogenic lignans, enterodiol and enterolac-tone. Given that other plant-derived oestrogenic substances (phyto-oestrogens) can stimulate breast cancer growth under certain circusmtances, there are concerns regarding the safety of flaxseed. The following review will look at the existing data to help clarify some of these issues.

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.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
