(2001) BMJ 323, 533. Bedford H, de Louvois J, Halket S . , et al. . Meningitis in infancy in England and Wales: follow up at age 5 years. . Sep 8; . : . –6 . [OpenUrl][1][Abstract/FREE Full Text][2] QUESTION: In children who survived meningitis during their first year of life, what are the sequelae at 5 years of age? Inception cohort of children who survived an acute attack of meningitis in their first year compared with children who did not have meningitis. General practices in England and Wales, UK. 1717 children who contracted meningitis during their first year. Sex- and age-matched children from the same general practice as the index child formed the control group. Data at 5 years of age were available for 1584 children (92%) who had had meningitis and 1391 in the control group (94%). General practitioners completed questionnaires on children that described any problems in neuromotor development, learning, vision, hearing, speech and language, and behaviour, and the presence of seizure disorders. Parents completed questionnaires on their child's health, development, and schooling. Gestational age, birthweight, the organism that caused the meningitis, and age at … [1]: {openurl}?query=rft.jtitle%253DBMJ%26rft.stitle%253DBMJ%26rft.issn%253D0007-1447%26rft.aulast%253DBedford%26rft.auinit1%253DH.%26rft.volume%253D323%26rft.issue%253D7312%26rft.spage%253D533%26rft.epage%253D533%26rft.atitle%253DMeningitis%2Bin%2Binfancy%2Bin%2BEngland%2Band%2BWales%253A%2Bfollow%2Bup%2Bat%2Bage%2B5%2Byears%26rft_id%253Dinfo%253Adoi%252F10.1136%252Fbmj.323.7312.533%26rft_id%253Dinfo%253Apmid%252F11546697%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/ijlink?linkType=ABST&journalCode=bmj&resid=323/7312/533&atom=%2Febmed%2F7%2F2%2F60.atom

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.
