Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

A Canadian man came to the hospital with history of daily fever in the afternoon, for five days, ranging from 38.5oC to 39oC, headache, muscle pain and asthenia. He is a photographer enthusiastic about wild life and had been to Zimbabwe for 14 days, where he filmed groups of lions and animals of the African megafauna. Upon examination, he presented a hyperemic skin lesion in the posterior region of the thorax, which appeared after an insect bite when he was concluding his visit to Africa, however the lesion persisted until admission to the hospital (Figure 1). A complete blood count and thick blood smear revealed the presence of trypanosomes (Figure 2), probably from the species Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense. The African trypanosomes (Trypanosoma brucei gambiense and Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense) are morphologically indistinguishable. The acute disease with the clinical characteristics described above, and the location where the patient was contaminated point Figure 1. Thick blood smear with trypanosoma Figure 2. Skin lesion

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.
