Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Feline oral squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is a devastating disease with an extremely poor long-term prognosis even with aggressive therapy. Folate and homocysteine derangements are identified in people diagnosed with head and neck SCC. The purpose of this study was to measure plasma folate and homocysteine concentrations in cats diagnosed with oral SCC (n = 13) and to compare these concentrations with those found in cats diagnosed with other tumour types (n = 25), cats with oral, non-neoplastic disease (n = 6) and healthy cats (n = 24). The median plasma folate concentration in cats diagnosed with oral SCC was 14.7 ng mL(-1), while the median plasma homocysteine concentration was 2.61 microg mL(-1). These concentrations did not differ significantly from those of cats in the other groups. This suggests that different factors may contribute to the pathogenesis of this tumour in cats when compared with people, although evaluation of larger numbers of cats may still identify a difference between groups.

Not 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.
