Abstract
This prospective study used antibody suspension bead arrays to identify biomarkers capable of predicting post-operative recurrence with distal metastasis in patients with colorectal cancer. One hundred colorectal cancer patients who underwent surgery were enrolled in this study. The median follow-up period was 3.9 years. The pre-operative plasma concentrations of 24 angiogenesis-related molecules were analyzed with regard to the TNM stage and the development of post-operative recurrence. The concentrations of half of the examined molecules (13/24) increased significantly according to the TNM stage (P < 0.05). Meanwhile, a multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that the concentrations of vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) were significantly higher in the post-operative recurrence group. The VCAM-1 and PAI-1 model discriminated post-operative recurrence with an area under the curve of 0.82, a sensitivity of 0.75, and a specificity of 0.73. A leave-one-out cross-validation was applied to the model to assess the prediction performance, and the result indicated that the cross-validated error rate was 12.5% (12/96). In conclusion, our results demonstrate that antibody suspension bead arrays are a powerful tool to screen biomarkers in the clinical setting, and the plasma levels of VCAM-1 and PAI-1 together may be a promising biomarker for predicting post-operative recurrence in patients with colorectal cancer.

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 it
