Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

We read with great interest the article reporting on the efficacy and safety of acupuncture and nimodipine therapy for the treatment of mild cognitive impairment after cerebral infarction We would like to highlight that the article by Wang and colleagues reports outcomes that differ from those initially described [2]. The article reference the pre-specified primary outcomes (efficacy) and only one (Montreal Cognitive Assessment, "MoCA") of the six pre-specified secondary outcomes. The CONSORT guidelines on the best practice in a trial reporting [3] are implemented to reduce the risk of selective outcome reporting and require that all pre-specified primary and secondary outcomes be reported.

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.

Full frame distilled prediction

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.
