Abstract
Plasma levels of endothelin-1 are elevated in acute myocardial infarction with higher levels in complicated infarctions. Measurements of levels in unstable angina could help clarify whether the elevation is the consequence of cell necrosis or is in some way related to the pathophysiology of acute coronary syndromes. Plasma endothelin-1 levels were determined by radioimmunoassay in 29 patients with unstable angina and 6 with a myocardial infarction. Blood samples were obtained at admission before drug administration and 6 and 72 h later. Levels were also determined in 27 control subjects and in 29 patients with stable angina. Admission levels were similar in unstable angina, 0.635 +/- 0.052 pg/ml [log(1 + x)], and myocardial infarction, 0.746 +/- 0.122, and significantly higher than in controls, 0.428 +/- 0.047, and stable angina patients, 0.449 +/- 0.052 (p < 0.01). In unstable angina, levels decreased progressively to normal at 6 h, 0.557 +/- 0.049 pg/ml, and 72 h 0.474 +/- 0.054, as opposed to an increase to 0.868 +/- 0.109 (p < 0.05) after 6 h in myocardial infarction followed by a decrease to 0.597 +/- 0.122 at 72 h. The elevation in unstable angina did not correlate with other clinical or laboratory characteristics. Unstable angina is associated with an increase in endothelin-1 plasma levels during the acute phase, suggesting a role of this endothelium-derived vasoactive peptide in the pathophysiology of acute coronary artery syndromes.

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 it
