Abstract
Abstract Growing evidence suggests that inflammation is a significant contributor to different cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Mendelian randomization (MR) was performed to assess the causal inference between plasma soluble IL6 receptor (sIL6R), a negative regulator of IL6 signaling, and different cardiovascular and immune-related disorders. Cis -MR with multiple instrumental variables showed an inverse association of sIL6R with rheumatoid arthritis, atrial fibrillation, stroke, coronary artery disease, and abdominal aortic aneurysm. However, genetically-determined sIL6R level was positively associated with atopic dermatitis and asthma. Also, sIL6R level was associated with longevity, as evaluated by parental age at death, a heritable trait. Gene-based association analysis with S-PrediXcan by using tissues from GTExV7 showed that IL6R tissue expression-disease pair associations were consistent with the directional effect of IL6 signaling identified in MR. Genetically-determined reduced IL6 signaling lowers the risk of multiple CVDs and is associated with increased longevity, but at the expense of higher atopic risk.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
