Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Cataract surgery has at least a 3000-year history, but it was not until the 19th century when it was refined to become a routine and successful procedure. Until early this century, the extracapsular technique, introduced by Daviel in 1748, was generally performed in Europe and America, and Mexico was no exception. The brightest and most distinguished Mexican physicians practiced that surgery. Several of their names designate the streets of "Colonia de los Doctores" in Mexico City. For the last quarter of the 19th century, ophthalmology was a defined and independent medical discipline in Mexico. The first Ophthalmologic Society in Latin America was established here in 1893, and in 1898 the oldest current journal of this specialty began its publication in Spanish. Since the 19th century--and perhaps before--cataract surgery in Mexico has been practiced at the same level as in the U.S. and Europe.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
