Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract People with severe mental illnesses suffer worse physical health than the general population. They are significantly more likely to die early: the ‘standardized mortality’ of schizophrenia is 1.6, which means that for any given age, their risk of dying is raised by 60% (Harris and Barraclough 1998). Their overall life expectancy is correspondingly lower than the norm. Some of this increased mortality and lowered life expectancy is due to suicide—but not all. The main causes of this increased mortality are respiratory and cardiovascular deaths. Kendrick (1996) found that a quarter of 101 severely mentally ill patients, studied in 16 general practices, were significantly obese, over half were regular smokers, 11 were hypertensive, 21 had persistent cough or sputum, and 24 suffered shortness of breath! Changes in lifestyle or earlier and better treatment could prevent much of this. Working closely with this patient group means that we need to understand more about why their health is so poor and what we can do about it.

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.
