Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Blastomyces dermatitidis is a fungus endemic in the central and eastern United States. It is coendemic with Histoplasma capsulatum in much of the central and southeastern United States, including the Mississippi and Ohio river valleys. Distribution of B dermatitidis extends farther north and west than H capsulatum and includes northern Wisconsin, Minnesota, Ontario, and Manitoba. Fungal growth occurs in nitrogen-rich soils close to streams, rivers, and lakes. Many outbreaks of blastomycosis occur within 100 meters of recreational water. Infection can be asymptomatic or can cause flulike symptoms, pneumonia, or skin, bone or CNS manifestations. Diagnosis and treatment are also reviewed.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

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.
