EVALUATION OF A NOVEL DOPPLER INDEX OF COMBINED SYSTOLIC AND DIASTOLIC MYOCARDIAL PERFORMANCE IN NEWFOUNDLAND DOGS WITH FAMILIAL PREVALENCE OF DILATED CARDIOMYOPATHY
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A Doppler index of myocardial performance (IMP) has been recently proposed in human cardiology, which is calculated from the isovolumic contraction time (ICT), isovolumic relaxation time (IRT), and the ejection time (ET) using the following formula: (ICT+IRT)/ET. In this study, IMP was measured and evaluated in Newfoundland dogs categorized in four groups: Normal dogs (n = 31), dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) (n = 34), depressed fractional shortening (dFS) (n = 27), and left ventricular enlargement (LVE) (n = 7). IMP was found to be independent of age, sex, body surface area, and the R-R interval in the Normal group. There were significant differences in IMP between the DCM group and the Normal and dFS groups (P < 0.05) and between Newfoundlands with overt vs. occult DCM. IMP is a Doppler index which appears to correlate with severity of disease and may be of use in the early diagnosis of affected dogs during screening for the presence of DCM.

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.
