Indeed, models can bridge the gap between direct evidence provided from randomized, controlled trials (RCTs) or observational studies and questions raised in daily practice. To estimate the degree that models are used in the development of current guidelines, we evaluated the list of the 100 most cited guidelines of the National Guideline Clearinghouse (www.guideline.gov) that we had identified for a previous study. The number of citations was extracted from the Thomson Reuters Web of Science (formerly ISI Web ...References1. Habbema JD, Wilt TJ, Etzioni R, Nelson HD, Schechter CB, Lawrence WF, et al.

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.
