Host Defense against Common Early Life-Threatening Infections
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Neonates suffer more severely and die more often than adults from a wide range of infections [1]. Although quantitative differences between neonatal and adult immune capacity are known, the molecular basis for the transition of immunologic function from fetal to postnatal life has remained a mystery. However, over the past decade, there has been an explosion of knowledge on immunity of the newborn and its importance to early host response to infection. Recent advances in developmental immunology now allow us to better understand the mechanisms underlying the susceptibility of neonates to many bacterial and viral infections [2, 3]. In addition, neonatal intestinal microbial ecology is now appreciated to play a role in host defenses and in the pathogenesis of neonatal necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) [4]. In this special issue, we have collected reviews and papers to provide insight in immunologic adaptation of the neonate to its new environment and the consequences of this transition to newborn host defense mechanisms to bacterial and viral infection.

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.
