Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Improved cancer screening and treatment programs have led to an increased survivorship of patients with cancer, but consequently also to the rise in number of individuals with multiple primary tumors (MPT). Germline testing is the first approach investigating the cause of MPT, as a positive result provides a diagnosis and proper clinical management to the affected individual and their family. Negative or inconclusive genetic results could suggest non-genetic causes, but are negative genetic results truly negative? Herein, we discuss the potential sources of missed genetic causes and highlight the trove of knowledge MPT can provide. See related article by Borja et al., p. 209.

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.
