Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

It is important that physicians practise evidence-based medicine. Clinical experience is important, but there are a number of reasons why clinical experience can lead to the impression that ineffective treatments are effective. There are major educational and research challenges which must be met before clinicians can practice evidence-based migraine therapy more extensively than at present. Treating physicians will need to learn more about the principles of evidence-based medicine. Researchers will need to produce more and better clinical trials that address important clinical questions. The results of these trials will need to be reported clearly, and we need to improve the efficiency with which these results can be accessed. It is important that the pharmaceutical industry, clinicians, and academic health centres work together to meet these challenges.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not 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.
