Does sevoflurane inhibit serum cholinesterase in children?
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Serum cholinesterase activity was measured at induction, and following anaesthesia in 41 children aged between 4 and 30 months. The median exposure to sevoflurane was 273%.min. The results did not demonstrate any significant difference in cholinesterase activity, when expressed by gram of serum proteins following inhalation anaesthesia using sevoflurane or intravenous anaesthesia using propofol. The values (SD) obtained were 175 (42) UI.g(-1) before anaesthesia and 177 (43) UI.g(-1) following anaesthesia. The only change in cholinesterase activity detected was related to heamodilution. We conclude that plasma fluoride concentration following sevoflurane administration [13.8 (4.2) microm x l(-1)] is too low to exert an inhibiting effect on in vivo cholinesterase activity and that the previously reported decrease in mivacurium requirements during sevoflurane anaesthesia is unlikely to be due to inhibition by fluoride ions.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
