Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Compliance with prescription medication regimens is poor in patients who suffer from chronic conditions as well as from diseases that affect public health. It is thought that improving medication adherence can have a profound effect on patient health, though medication compliance remains a problem despite the availability of many modalities. Recently, digitalizing medication adherence was made possible by Proteus Digital Health, Inc using an ingestible sensor that emits an electric field upon digestion. This signal is detected by an externally worn adhesive monitor, which records the time at which the signal is received, along with other biometric markers such as heart rate. This system is currently under United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) review for use in a combination pill that also contains aripiprazole, a partial dopamine agonist used for the treatment of certain serious psychiatric conditions. Digitalizing medication adherence can have tremendous applications in all fields of medicine, though issues of drug costs, patient privacy, and patient autonomy may need to be addressed.

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.
