ABCA1 gene promoter methylation and sudden cardiac death
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Aim . A study of the association of the methylation of the promoter of the ABCA1 gene with sudden cardiac death (SCD). Materials and methods . The study design is based on the case-control principle. The SCD group included 150 men (mean age (46.7 ± 9.2) years) who died of sudden cardiac death according to forensic medical examination data (the main pathological diagnoses are acute circulatory failure, acute coronary insufficiency). The control group included 150 men (mean age (42.6 ± 1.2) years) who died suddenly, but not due to cardiovascular pathology. DNA was isolated by phenol-chloroform extraction from myocardial tissue. The methylation status of the ABCA1 gene promoter was assessed by methyl-specific polymerase chain reaction. The results obtained were statistically processed in SPSS 16.0 using Pearson’s test and Fisher’s test with Yates’ correction for continuity. P < 0.05 was used as a level of significance. Results . Comparing the groups revealed statistically significant differences in the methylation status of the gene promoter ( p = 0.015). In the SCD group, the proportion of individuals whose ABCA1 gene promoter is methylated is statistically significantly higher compared to the control group ( p = 0.020; OR = 5.86; 95% CI (1.28–26.89)). Conclusion. Methylation of the promoter of the ABCA1 gene is associated with sudden cardiac death.

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; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
