Effects of radioactive caesium on bull testes after the Fukushima nuclear plant accident
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We aimed to investigate the effect of chronic radiation exposure associated with the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Plant accident on the testis from 2 bulls. Estimated dose of internal exposure in one bull was 0.7-1.2 mGy (¹³⁴Cs) and 0.4-0.6 mGy (¹³⁷Cs) and external exposure was 2.0 mGy (¹³⁴Cs) and 0.8 mGy (¹³⁷Cs) (196 days). Internal dose in the other was 3.2-6.1 mGy (¹³⁴Cs) and 1.8-3.4 mGy (¹³⁷Cs) and external dose was 1.3 mGy (¹³⁴Cs) and 0.6 mGy (¹³⁷Cs) (315 days). Sperm morphology and spermatogenesis were within normal ranges. ¹³⁴,¹³⁷Cs radioactivity was detected but Cs was not detectable in the testis by electron probe microanalysis. Thus, adverse radiation-induced effects were not observed in bull testes following chronic exposure to the above levels of radiation for up to 10 months. Since we could analyse a limited number of testes, further investigation on the effects of ionizing radiation on spermatogenesis should be extended to more animals.

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.
