Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

It is unclear if convalescent plasma can blunt the development of a natural immune response, especially when used prophylactically. There are multiple clinical trials taking place in several countries including in the UK (e.g., REMAP-CAP and RECOVERY Trials). People who have recovered from COVID-19 for more than 28 days, with no transfusion transmitted diseses and who are not pregnant are eligible to participate. Recipients will be followed throughout their hospitalisation and a month after discharge. While we await trial results, we recommend that CPT be considered for patients severely ill with COVID-19 upon hospitalisation.

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.
