Why is this work in the frame?
A frame that forgets how it found something cannot be audited. These are the routes that admitted this work.
Full frame distilled prediction
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)
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
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.

Abstract
ABSTRACT We previously reported that intramyocardial injection of bone marrow‐derived mesenchymal stem cells overexpressing Akt (Akt‐MSCs) inhibits ventricular remodeling and restores cardiac function measured 2 wk after myocardial infarction. Here, we report that the functional improvement occurs in < 72 h. This early remarkable effect cannot be readily attributed to myocardial regeneration from the donor cells. Thus, we hypothesized that paracrine actions exerted by the cells through the release of soluble factors might be important mechanisms of tissue repair and functional improvement after injection of the Akt‐MSCs. Indeed, in the current study we demonstrate that conditioned medium from hypoxic Akt‐MSCs markedly inhibits hypoxia‐induced apoptosis and triggers vigorous spontaneous contraction of adult rat cardiomyocytes in vitro . When injected into infarcted hearts, the Akt‐MSC conditioned medium significantly limits infarct size and improves ventricular function relative to controls. Sup‐port to the paracrine hypothesis is provided by data showing that several genes, coding for factors (VEGF, FGF‐2, HGF, IGF‐I, and TB4) that are potential mediators of the effects exerted by the Akt‐MSC conditioned medium, are significantly up‐regulated in the Akt‐MSCs, particularly in response to hypoxia. Taken together, our data support Akt‐MSC‐mediated para‐crine mechanisms of myocardial protection and functional improvement.‐Gnecchi, M., He, H., Noiseux, N., Liang, O.
