Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Rhodotorula species are imperfect basidiomycetous yeasts belonging to the family Cryptococcaceae and are widespread throughout nature.1 In many clinical situations Rhodotorula spp are considered a contaminant, but when identified in normally sterile sources such as blood, cerebrospinal fluid and vitreous the cultures are significant for mycotic infection.1 Human disease is extremely rare with Rhodotorula spp but opportunistic cases of endocarditis, septicaemia, meningitis, ventriculitis, and peritonitis are reported in the literature.2 Ocular infections include chronic dacryocystitis,3 keratitis,4 chronic postoperative endophthalmitis,5 and corneal lamellar graft infection.6 It is becoming increasingly important to clinically recognise and consider such opportunistic organisms as an increasing number of patients are immunocompromised by either iatrogenic or disease related causes. Immunocompromised status, indwelling catheters, recent surgery of trauma, and injecting drug use appear to be the major factors leading …

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.
