Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

There is evidence in animals that behavioral and physiological responses to static and extremely low frequency magnetic fields (ELFMF) is affected by the presence of light during magnetic field exposures. Here we report that the effect of a specific pulsed ELFMF (PEMF) on human standing balance is modulated by light intensity during exposure. Under a low light condition (0.12 W/m2), nine healthy human volunteers stood on a 3D forceplate, throughout four 2 min exposures (eyes open/eyes close, sham/PEMF of 200 +/- 1 microTpk, order randomized). There was a significant increase in standing movement during PEMF exposure during eyes closed. In a second experiment on 26 normal subjects exposed to the identical protocol, but at greater light intensities (0.51 W/m2), a significant but opposite effect was observed.

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.
