Control of Cerebral Blood Flow by Blood Gases
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Cerebrovascular reactivity can be measured as the cerebrovascular flow response to a hypercapnic challenge. The many faceted responses of cerebral blood flow to combinations of blood gas challenges are mediated by its vasculature's smooth muscle and can be comprehensively described by a simple mathematical model. The model accounts for the blood flow during hypoxia, anemia, hypocapnia, and hypercapnia. The main hypothetical basis of the model is that these various challenges, singly or in combination, act via a common regulatory pathway: the regulation of intracellular hydrogen ion concentration. This regulation is achieved by membrane transport of strongly dissociated ions to control their intracellular concentrations. The model assumes that smooth muscle vasoconstriction and vasodilation and hence cerebral blood flow, are proportional to the intracellular hydrogen ion concentration. Model predictions of the cerebral blood flow responses to hypoxia, anemia, hypocapnia, and hypercapnia match the form of observed responses, providing some confidence that the theories on which the model is based have some merit.

How this classification was reachedexpand
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 itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
