Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Background: During the outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) in the Spring 2003, we employed the theory of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) to treat patients with SARS in China-Japan Friendship Hospital. Methods: According to our clinical observation with the “Pestilence” theory of TCM, the progress of SARS can be divided into five stages, i.e. the latent stage, the febrile stage, the cough and asthmatic stage, the prostration stage, and the recovery stage. TCM formulae were employed for the different stages of SARS. The time of allaying fever, the average absorption day of pulmonary infiltration, and the increase in white blood cell counts were used for evaluation of the treatment. Results: For those 4 patients with fever at the time of admitting to hospital, the time of allaying fever was 2, 3, 6 and 7 days respectively after the treatment of TCM. For 11 patients, the mean absorption time of chest infiltration was 14.56±6.71 days from the range of 5 days to 25 days. In addition, after treatment with TCM, total count of white blood cells and lymphocytes were all within normal range. Conclusion: Treatment with traditional Chinese medicine can be one of the choices for patients with SARS.

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.
