Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The traditional concern of pharmacogenetics was Mendelian (monogenic) variation, which visibly affected some drug responses. Pharmacogenetics was broadened by the observation that multifactorial genetic influences, in conjunction with environmental factors, usually determine drug responses. Variability of gene expression, a new theme of the science of genetics, also affects pharmacogenetics; for example, enhanced enzyme activity does not necessarily indicate a mutation, but may be the consequence of a drug-induced enhancement of gene expression. Methodological advances permit the conversion of pharmacogenetics into the broad practice of pharmacogenomics; this improves the possibility of identifying genetic causes of common diseases, which means establishing new drug targets, thereby stimulating the search for new drugs. While the main medical effect of pharmacogenetics was an improvement of drug safety, pharmacogenomics is hoped to improve drug efficacy. On the way to personalized medicine, we may stepwise improve the chances of choosing the right drug for a patient by categorizing patients into genetically definable classes that have similar drug effects (as, for example, human races, or any population group carrying a particular set of genes). It is wise to expect that, even after we have reached the goal to establish personalized medicine, we will not have eliminated all uncertainties.

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.
