Abstract
The epidemiology of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) in Europe and North America was analyzed from published material. The percentage of the population of Western civilisation with IBS symptoms is between 10 and 15% in most studies. The proportion of a Western population visiting a doctor for IBS symptoms is around 5%. The prevalence of IBS and the proportion of consulters do not seem to depend on age in an adult population. The female-to-male ratio of IBS in the population is close to 2. It is higher in IBS consulters in primary care and may be as high as 3 or 4 in tertiary referral centers. At least in patients from these centers, the number of physician visits and colonoscopies is considerable. Most of the consulters get a drug prescription.

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
