Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Heart failure is a complex syndrome with a high morbidity and mortality rate. The Canadian mortality rate is between 25% and 40% annually. End-stage heart failure patients suffer from many debilitating symptoms. Palliative symptom management and funding programs can assist many of these patients. Unfortunately, designating a heart failure patient as palliative with a trajectory of six months or less is not an easy task. This is difficult to determine due to the lack of tangible trajectory markers and the roller-coaster nature of the trajectory itself. These circumstances were the impetus for a review of the current literature and a clinical experience in a cardiac clinic within a major teaching hospital in Vancouver. The objective was to determine if clear palliative trajectory markers for heart failure existed and, if so, could they be used to produce a tool to assist health care professionals to accurately determine a timeline of six months or less.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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.
