Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Frailty is a state of increased vulnerability to adverse health outcomes for individuals of the same age. It can be quantified in people with a frailty index (FI) by counting the accumulation of health deficits in an individual and dividing by the number of deficits measured. We calculated FI scores from >30 clinically-apparent signs of deterioration in naturally-aging rodents and showed that FI scores increase with age, as in humans. Furthermore, the relationship between FI scores and age is similar in mice and humans, there is a submaximal limit to frailty (FI score=0.6) in mice and humans and high FI scores predict mortality in rats/mice as in humans. Known longevity interventions (caloric restriction, resveratrol) reduce FI scores in mice. The ability to measure frailty in animals is a major advance in the effort to understand the biology of frailty. This provides a platform to develop and test new clinical interventions.

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.
