Abstract
A major pathway by which cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is removed from the cranium is transport through the cribriform plate in association with the olfactory nerves. CSF is then absorbed into lymphatics located in the submucosa of the olfactory epithelium (olfactory turbinates). In an attempt to provide a quantitative measure of this transport, 125I-human serum albumin (HSA) was injected into the lateral ventricles of adult Fisher 344 rats. The animals were killed at 10, 20, 30, 40, and 60 min after injection, and tissue samples, including blood (from heart puncture), skeletal muscle, spleen, liver, kidney, and tail were excised for radioactive assessment. The remains were frozen. To sample the olfactory turbinates, angled coronal tissue sections anterior to the cribriform plate were prepared from the frozen heads. The average concentration of 125I-HSA was higher in the middle olfactory turbinates than in any other tissue with peak concentrations achieved 30 min after injection. At this point, the recoveries of injected tracer (percent injected dose/g tissue) were 9.4% middle turbinates, 1.6% blood, 0.04% skeletal muscle, 0.2% spleen, 0.3% liver, 0.3% kidney, and 0.09% tail. The current belief that arachnoid projections are responsible for CSF drainage fails to explain some important issues related to the pathogenesis of CSF disorders. The rapid movement of the CSF tracer into the olfactory turbinates further supports a role for lymphatics in CSF absorption and provides the basis of a method to investigate the novel concept that diseases associated with the CSF system may involve impaired lymphatic CSF transport.

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
