Abstract
individuals diagnosed at an older age must live to that age to be diagnosed and included in the cystic fibrosis registry, which leads to an "immortal" survival time bias.The relationship between age at diagnosis and survival is complex and must be interpreted with caution, as noted by Fieuws and colleagues.Although older age at diagnosis inherently increases the risk for death because of age effects, older age at diagnosis may also reflect milder disease and reduced risk for death.However, being diagnosed later in life also means there were additional years of untreated cystic fibrosis, which could result in a negative effect on health and, hence, result in an increased risk for death.We again thank Fieuws and colleagues for bringing attention to this important issue and for highlighting that older age at diagnosis may not necessarily be a risk factor for worse outcomes in adult-diagnosed cystic fibrosis, a message we would not want miscommunicated to patients.
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 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; the direct Gemma label and the distilled Codex classifier agree on what is shown here.
