Abstract
Disturbance of capillary perfusions due to leukocyte adhesion, disseminated intravascular coagulation, tissue edema is critical components in the pathophysiology of sepsis. Alterations in brain microcirculation during sepsis are not clearly understood. The aim of this study is to gain an improved understanding of alterations through direct visualization of brain microcirculations in an experimental endotoxemia using intravital microscopy (IVM). Endotoxemia was induced in Lewis rats with Lipopolysaccharide (LPS, 15 mg/kg i.v.). The dura mater was removed via a cranial window to expose the pial vessels on the brain surface. Using fluorescence dyes, plasma extravasation of pial venous vessels and leukocyte-endothelial interaction were visualized by intravital microscopy 4 h after LPS administration. Plasma cytokine levels of IL1-beta, IL-6, IFN-gamma, TNF-alpha and KC/GRO were evaluated after IVM. A significant plasma extravasation of the pial venous vessels was found in endotoxemia rats compared to control animals. In addition, a significantly increased number of leukocytes adherent to the pial venous endothelium was observed in septic animals. Endotoxemia also induced a significant elevation of plasma cytokine levels of IL1-beta, IL-6, IFN-gamma, TNF-alpha and KC/GRO. Endotoxemia increased permeability in the brain pial vessels accompanied by an increase of leukocyte-endothelium interactions and an increase of inflammatory cytokines in the plasma.

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
