Abstract
(1999) J Clin Psychopharmacol 19, 427. Bauer M, Döpfmer S. . Lithium augmentation in treatment-resistant depression: meta-analysis of placebo-controlled studies. . Oct; . : . –34 . [OpenUrl][1][CrossRef][2][PubMed][3][Web of Science][4] QUESTION: In patients with refractory depression, is lithium augmentation clinically effective? Studies were identified by searching Medline (1980 to June 1997) and the Cochrane Library and by scanning the references of published reviews and standard textbooks. Studies were selected if they were double blind, placebo controlled trials that involved patients who had not responded to conventional antidepressants; accepted, operationalised diagnostic criteria for depression were used; and outcome measures included acceptable criteria for assessing response. 2 reviewers independently assessed the quality of each study (Quality Assessment Scale by Detsky) and resolved differences by consensus. Data were extracted on study population, antidepressant treatment, lithium dose, treatment duration, response criteria, and treatment response. 9 randomised controlled trials (RCTs) involving 234 patients met the inclusion … [1]: {openurl}?query=rft.jtitle%253DJournal%2Bof%2Bclinical%2Bpsychopharmacology%26rft.stitle%253DJ%2BClin%2BPsychopharmacol%26rft.aulast%253DBauer%26rft.auinit1%253DM.%26rft.volume%253D19%26rft.issue%253D5%26rft.spage%253D427%26rft.epage%253D434%26rft.atitle%253DLithium%2Baugmentation%2Bin%2Btreatment-resistant%2Bdepression%253A%2Bmeta-analysis%2Bof%2Bplacebo-controlled%2Bstudies.%26rft_id%253Dinfo%253Adoi%252F10.1097%252F00004714-199910000-00006%26rft_id%253Dinfo%253Apmid%252F10505584%26rft.genre%253Darticle%26rft_val_fmt%253Dinfo%253Aofi%252Ffmt%253Akev%253Amtx%253Ajournal%26ctx_ver%253DZ39.88-2004%26url_ver%253DZ39.88-2004%26url_ctx_fmt%253Dinfo%253Aofi%252Ffmt%253Akev%253Amtx%253Actx [2]: /lookup/external-ref?access_num=10.1097/00004714-199910000-00006&link_type=DOI [3]: /lookup/external-ref?access_num=10505584&link_type=MED&atom=%2Febmed%2F5%2F3%2F88.atom [4]: /lookup/external-ref?access_num=000082698200006&link_type=ISI

Direct model labels (unvalidated)
Per-model category and study-design labels from the labeling rounds. They are machine output, unvalidated, and the disagreement between models ships as data. No study design here is MEDLINE-validated yet.

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, unvalidatedLabeled directly by 2 models reading the full record.
