In Utero Remodeling of the Fetal Lamb Ductus Arteriosus
Bibliographic record
Abstract
BACKGROUND: The ductus arteriosus (DA) of newborn infants exposed in utero to indomethacin is resistant to postnatal indomethacin; we hypothesized that this is due to ductus constriction in utero, with subsequent remodeling of the vessel. METHODS AND RESULTS: Infusion of fetal lambs with indomethacin for 48 hours constricted the DA and increased the thickness of the avascular zone of the DA, which in turn induced the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor, endothelial nitric oxide synthase (due to ingrowth of vasa vasorum), neointima formation, and loss of smooth muscle cells; moderate degrees of DA constriction in utero increased NO production, which inhibited DA contractility. Marked degrees of DA constriction decreased tissue distensibility and contractile capacity. CONCLUSIONS: DA patency is no longer controlled primarily by prostaglandins once it has been exposed to indomethacin in utero.

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.
