Abstract
A feature of most neurological disorders is demyelination, whereby myelin is lost from axons partly through stripping by macrophages/microglia. Spontaneous remyelination by oligodendrocytes that mature from oligodendrocyte precursor cells occurs following demyelination, even in the chronic inflammatory disorder of the central nervous system, multiple sclerosis. If remyelination does not occur or is prevented, then one consequence besides the loss of saltatory nerve conduction is the degeneration of axons. Thus, promoting remyelination is a desired result. In this article, we review the data that despite a reputation as "bad" factors for CNS wellbeing, including the promotion of neuroinflammation and demyelination, some aspects of macrophages/microglia activity are indeed "good", and can engender repair from the "ugly" phenomenon of demyelination. We discuss factors that help promote the benefits of macrophages/microglia activity for remyelination.

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
