Abstract
Polyhalogenated aromatic arylhydrocarbons (PAHs) such as polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins (PCDDs) and dibenzofurans (PCDFs), the polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are persistent lipophilic pollutants, which affect female fertility resulting in severe reproductive dysregulation, including anovulation, reduced conception rates, abortion, menstrual abnormalities and developmental defects of female reproductive tissues. Many PAHs exert their effects by activating a family of basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factors, the arylhydrocarbon receptor (AhR) and the arylhydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator (ARNT), which result in the expression of AhR target molecules. Complex interactions between PAH-mediated AhR activation and ER signalling pathways have been discovered which may contribute to the developmental malformations, impact on reproductive dysfunctions and promote carcinogenic dedifferentiation of tissues within the female reproductive tract. This review will focus on the multifaceted roles of PAHs in key organs of the female reproductive tract, the ovary, uterus/ endometrium and the mammary gland. The complexity and diversity of actions unleashed by PAHs in these female reproductive tissues identify these environmental pollutants as important endocrine disrupting toxicants impacting on female fertility.

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 it
