Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

VATS lobectomy is now 25 years old having started in 1992 and was taken up by many pioneers (1-4). The operation continued to evolve over this time and as the authors of this paper report (5), over 1,500 cohort papers that report the benefits of VATS lobectomy have now been published. However, after a quarter of a century, the rates of VATS lobectomy vary widely internationally but are often well below 50% in most countries.

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.
