Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract Reoviruses are infectious agents, transmitted by respiratory and faecal – oral routes. The mammalian reoviruses (MRV) are the prototypic viruses of a large group of infectious agents, many of which are highly pathogenic to their natural hosts, although the MRV are not significant human pathogens. The MRV are distinguished by having a genome of 10 segments of double‐stranded ribonucleic acid (dsRNA) that is located inside a double‐layered, spherical nonenveloped protein capsid. The capsid is incompletely uncoated during viral replication and the inner capsid (core) serves as an enzymatic ‘machine’ producing progeny mRNA. The virus is being studied as a potential anticancer oncolytic therapy. The virus is also quite stable and therefore is useful as a ‘bio‐indicator’ for assessing water quality and wastewater disinfection. Key Concepts: The reoviruses have served as models for understanding biology of double‐stranded RNA and RNA transcription signals. Mammalian reoviruses are ubiquitous in nature and virtually all mammalian species are infected by these agents. Reoviruses have a segmented genome and different genome segments from different virus types can mix to create hybrid progeny viruses called ‘reassortants’. Although most family members are highly pathogenic in their natural hosts, mammalian reoviruses are generally harmless to humans. Because the viruses are generally harmless, and because they are unusually stable, they serve beneficially as anticancer agents and for monitoring water and wastewater disinfection.

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.
