Polyhemoglobin-Fibrinogen: A Novel Oxygen Carrier with Platelet-Like Properties in a Hemodiluted Setting
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Polyhemoglobin (polyHb) is currently being assessed in phase III trials under various formulations. At present, none contain clotting factors or platelet substitutes to aid in hemostasis. We have prepared a novel blood substitute that is an oxygen carrier with platelet-like activity. This is formed by crosslinking fibrinogen to hemoglobin to form polyhemoglobin-fibrinogen (polyHb-Fg). This was studied and compared to polyHb for its effect on coagulation both in vitro and in vivo. In the in vitro experiments, PolyHb-Fg showed similar clotting times as whole blood, whereas polyHb showed significantly higher clotting times. This result was confirmed in in vivo experiments using an exchange transfusion rat-model. Using PolyHb, exchange transfusion of 80% or more increased the normal clotting time (1-2 mins) to > 10 mins. Partial clots formed with PolyHb did not adhere to the tubing wall. With PolyHb-Fg, a normal clotting time is maintained, even with 98% exchange transfusion.

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.
