Abstract
The purpose of this study is to explain why the prevalence of hypothyroidism appears to be significantly higher than that reported in the medical literature. Most hypothyroidism (low thyroid function) patients go undiagnosed because laboratory tests only identify the presence of thyroid hormone in the blood and cannot tell us how much active hormone reaches the biological tissues that require it for metabolism. The thyroid gland's primary role is to control metabolism. The primary hormone secreted by the thyroid is thyroxine (T4), which is physiologically inactive. T4 has to be converted into its active form, triiodothyronine (T3), in order to exert its effects. The body's deiodinase enzymes, which are found in abundance in the majority of its tissues, catalyse this conversion. Reduced basal metabolism and concurrent hypothyroidism occur when insufficient T3 enters body cells. The physiological problem of low thyroid function frequently goes undetected by hormone blood tests. The physiological baseline temperature test (BTT), however, is 100 percent accurate at identifying hypothyroidism.

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.
