Sepsis and hyperoxia effects on the pulmonary surfactant system in wild-type and iNOS knockout mice
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Alterations of pulmonary surfactant and increases in inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) have been implicated in the pathophysiology of acute lung injury. It was hypothesised that these two observations are related and that alterations of the endogenous surfactant, due to either sepsis or hyperoxia, would be reduced in mice lacking the iNOS gene compared to wild-type mice. Wild-type and iNOS (-/-) mice were randomised into sham or sepsis, and in a separate experiment animals were randomised to normoxia or hyperoxia exposure for 48 h. Lungs were lavaged and analysed for total surfactant levels and surfactant subfractions (large (LA) and small (SA) aggregates). Both sepsis groups had decreased SA compared to sham groups with no significant difference between the two genotypes. Mice exposed to hyperoxia had a decreased amount of total surfactant when compared to normoxia controls and there was no significant difference between the two genotypes. It is concluded that inducible nitric oxide synthase does not influence the amount of pulmonary surfactant or surfactant subfractions recovered in lavage after 18 h of sepsis or 48 h of hyperoxia.

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.
