Bibliographic record
Abstract
Introduction: Firearm injuries are considered one of the leading causes for both homicidal and suicidal deaths worldwide. Among different firearms, handguns are the most preferred weapon used especially for suicide. Frequency of firearm fatalities vary from place to place depending upon multiple factors like culture, literacy rate, strict execution of laws.Material & Methods: This was a descriptive cross-sectional study based on secondary data of medico-legal autopsy reports of years 2013 and 2014 at the District Head Quarter (DHQ) Hospital Lakki Marwat, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP), Pakistan. Informed consents were collected from respective authorities. All reports were analyzed in SPSS version 20 for descriptive statistics.Results: A total of 93 autopsies of firearm fatalities including 49(52.7%) cases in 2013 and 44(47.3%) cases in 2014 were analyzed, which included 85(91.4%) males. The mean age of the deceased was 31.5±13.3 years. Majority of cases were brought from Lakki Marwat, followed by Ghazni Khel region. Multiple gunshot wounds were found in 53(57%) cases. Chest was the most affected body area involved, followed by head.

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.
