PRESERFLO MicroShunt
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract The PRESERFLO® MicroShunt (Santen Pharmaceutical Co. Ltd., Osaka, Japan), formerly called the InnFocus MicroShunt®, is a trans-scleral device that shunts aqueous humour from the anterior chamber to a filtering bleb under the conjunctiva and Tenon’s capsule. Manufactured from an inert biocompatible material called poly(styrene-block-isobutylene-block-styrene), or ‘SIBS’, the device elicits minimal foreign body reaction and inflammation; potentially reducing the risk of bleb-related fibrosis and failure. The MicroShunt is 8.5 mm long with a 70 μm lumen and is designed to minimize hypotony based on the Hagen–Poiseuille equation. Inserted via an ab-externo approach, the MicroShunt eliminates the need for creation of a scleral flap, sclerostomy, iridectomy, scleral flap suturing and postoperative suture lysis. Clinical trials show promising results with the MicroShunt achieving intraocular pressure reduction approaching that of trabeculectomy, the current gold standard for treating refractory glaucoma.

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.
