Abstract
Fever is common among patients admitted to intensive care units (ICUs). In spite of the frequency of its occurrence, the biological mechanisms regulating the initiation and progression of fever are poorly understood. In addition, there are few large studies reporting on the epidemiology and etiology of fever in general medical and surgical ICU patients. Current evidence suggests that the development of high fever by patients admitted to ICUs with a medical admission diagnosis is associated with an increased risk of death. The decision to treat fever should therefore be obvious, but several lines of evidence argue against temperature-lowering strategies. Furthermore, the use of different temperature control strategies in febrile patients without acute brain injury or acute myocardial infarction is guided by a paucity of randomized clinical trials and by a lack of understanding of the biology of the induction and control of fever. As such, a review of the epidemiology, molecular mechanisms, and immunology of fever as well as the evidence behind management of fever in the critically ill is pertinent to all critical care practitioners.

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
