Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Herbal med i cine has a long his tory in Ca na dian ther a peutics. It is in te grated with the ethnocultural med i cal tra di tions of aboriginals, set tiers and im mi grants. Phytotherapy constituted the dominant source of med i ca tions un til they were largely re placed by syn thetic allopathic prod ucts in the mid-twen ti eth cen tury. There has been pres sure to re vise the Food and Drug Act to ac com mo date the re sur gence of de mand for com pie men tary med i eines. Fol low ing ex ten sive pub lie hear ings a National Health Prod ucts Di rec tor ate was es tab lished within Health Canada. A new framework is being developed for regulation of natural health prod ucts in clud ing herbal agents. Ac cess, qual ity, safety and efficacy are major con sid er ations in this pro cess.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not 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.
