A proton NMR study on the hydration of normal <i>versus</i> psoriatic stratum corneum: linking distinguishable reservoirs to anatomical structures
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The NMR behaviour of normal and psoriatic stratum corneum (SC) was investigated as a function of hydration with the aim of obtaining a better understanding of the role of water in the SC structure. Time domain NMR techniques were employed to identify the signal from water and that from nonaqueous components of the SC, such as lipids and proteins. The signals were investigated as a function of water content. The free induction decay was separated into mobile signal (from water and mobile lipids) and solid signal (from protein and 'solid' lipids). Spin-spin relaxation (T(2)) measurements further separated the mobile domains within the SC. The results suggested that, when water is added to dry SC, it first enters the corneocytes; then, at a hydration of 0.24-0.33 g H(2)O/g SC (normal SC) or 0.12-0.24 g H(2)O/g SC (psoriatic SC), water begins to accumulate in hydrated lipid regions. Water was found to exchange between these two domains on the time scale of a few hundred milliseconds. When compared with normal SC, psoriatic SC had a looser corneocyte structure, a larger mobile lipid component at low hydration and a smaller capacity for corneocyte water.

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.
