Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The extensive use of antibiotics in long-term-care facilities has led to increasing concern about the potential for the development of antibiotic resistance. Relatively little is known, however, about the quantitative relation between antibiotic use and resistance in this population. A better understanding of the underlying factors that account for variance in antibiotic use, unexplained by detected infections, is needed. To optimize antibiotic use, evidence-based standards for empirical antibiotic prescribing need to be developed. Limitations in current diagnostic testing for infection in residents of long-term-care facilities pose a substantial challenge to developing such standards.

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.
