Bibliographic record
Abstract
On 6-7 October 2002, the International Union Against Tuberculosis and Lung Disease (IUATLD), the International Pediatrics Association (IPA), the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the United States National Institutes for Health (NIH), and the World Health Organization (WHO) co-sponsored and organized a Workshop on 'Tuberculosis in Children' to assess research needs in childhood tuberculosis (TB) in conjunction with the 33rd IUATLD World Conference on Lung Health. Participants included approximately 40 researchers from the sponsoring organizations as well as from academic institutions, and National Tuberculosis (TB) Programs from a number of countries in sub-Saharan Africa, Asia, Latin America, and Eastern Europe. The goals of the workshop were to highlight current gaps in knowledge about childhood TB, to assess research opportunities, and to begin to establish working partnerships and identify funding sources. The workshop focused on six key topics: the global epidemiology of TB among children, clinical practice including diagnosis and case management of childhood TB, basic research, programmatic aspects of the control of TB among children, ethics, and effects of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) on TB in children. Review papers on these topics were presented as the foundation for the workshop. Participants were then divided into groups to deliberate on critical areas of research and programmatic needs, recommendations for addressing the needs, and strategic planning to increase international focus on childhood TB. The following summary, including data reported and referenced within the review papers presented at the workshop, represents the proceedings of the workshop.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
