Cardiovascular Effects of Oxytocin Infusion in a Porcine Model of Myocardial Infarct
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The effects of oxytocin (OT) on cardiovascular endpoints were assessed in a myocardial infarct (MI) model. OT (10 ng.kg(-1).hour(-1)) or saline infusion was initiated at reperfusion (D0) or 8 days (D8) after MI. Our hypothesis was that OT administration to individuals with a low pretreatment OT levels (PTOT) may be beneficial, whereas individuals with an elevated PTOT would be prone to adverse effects. Starting OT on D0 reduced left ventricular fraction shortening evaluated 8 days post MI and had no effect on infarct size. OT initiated on D8 in animals with high PTOT decreased ejection fraction (EF) and increased left ventricular end-systolic diameter at 28 days post MI but had no significant effects on EF and left ventricular end-systolic diameter in low PTOT animals. OT infusion reduced OT receptor protein expression in high PTOT animals but not in low PTOT animals. Among placebo-treated individuals, low PTOT presented a trend toward reduced EF and larger infarct size compared with high PTOT. MI areas of fibrosis presented lower Annexin V expression compared with MI with cardiomyocyte predominance. Pretreatment endogenous OT levels and timing of OT administration post MI seem to impact outcome in this porcine model, and further investigations are warranted to define potential role of OT in cardiac regenerative therapy.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
