Accelerated congenics for mapping two blood pressure quantitative trait loci on chromosome 10 of Dahl rats
Bibliographic record
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To localize quantitative trait loci (QTL) in an animal model that is potentially relevant to human hypertension. DESIGN AND METHODS: Four congenic strains have been constructed by replacing various segments of the Dahl salt-sensitive (S) rat by those of the Lewis (LEW) rat. A marker-assisted approach was employed to facilitate this process. When these congenic strains were established, their blood pressures (BPs) were measured by telemetry and compared with that of the S rat. Moreover, a search was conducted to find possible intermediate phenotypes linking the BP effects of the QTL and other physiological traits. RESULTS: Two BP QTL, designated as QTL1 and QTL2, have been mapped to the regions of 4.2 centiMorgans (cM) and less than 12.1 cM respectively on rat chromosome 10. The effects of both QTL correlate with cardiac, left ventricular and aortic hypertrophy. The effect of QTL1 is also associated with renal hypertrophy. CONCLUSION: The current study proved that multiple QTL exist in the region of Dahl rat chromosome 10. The identification of these QTL may help unravel the mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of certain QTL in humans.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
