Update – 2022 Canadian Urological Association guideline: Evaluation and medical management of the kidney stone patient
Bibliographic record
Abstract
sion in the literature assessment for this guideline update.Management recommendations were modified if needed based on the most current literature since the last guideline was published in 2016.Studies were evaluated and recommendations made based on Oxford levels of evidence and grades of recommendation as per the CUA Guidelines Committee's directive.15 Indications for metabolic evaluationRecommendation: Basic metabolic screening should include a urinalysis, with or without a urine culture, serum electrolytes (Na, K, HCO 3 ), calcium, creatinine, and a stone analysis when available (Level of evidence [LE] 4, Grade C recommendation).A first-time stone former, without any identifiable risk factors for recurrent stone formation, should undergo a limited metabolic screen to rule out potential systemic disorders such as hyperparathyroidism and renal dysfunction.

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.
