Association of a Polymorphism in the <i>TNFR2</i> Gene with Low Bone Mineral Density
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Previous genetic linkage data suggested that a gene on chromosome 1p36.2-36.3 might be linked to low bone mineral density (BMD). Here, we examine the gene for tumor necrosis factor receptor 2 (TNFR2), a candidate gene within that interval, for association with low BMD in a group of 159 unrelated individuals. We assess two polymorphic sites within the gene, a microsatellite repeat within intron 4, and a three-nucleotide variation in the 3' untranslated region (UTR) of the gene. The latter has five alleles of which the rarest allele is associated with low spinal BMD Z score (p = 0.008). Lowest mean spinal BMD Z scores were observed for individuals having genotypes that were heterozygous for the rarest allele. No homozygotes for the rarest allele were observed. Preliminary analysis suggests that there is a difference in the genotype frequency distribution between the group with low BMD and a control group.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
