Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The duration and magnitude of haematological changes following non-targeted low-dose radiation have not been well explored. We previously reported that low-dose radiation (150 mGy 2x/week for 5 consecutive weeks) was well tolerated by participants (n = 15) with minimal toxicities and no changes in quality of life. Leukocytes, platelets and erythrocytes decreased from baseline measurement 12 months following treatment, however changes were not clinically significant. T-cells, NK-cells, B-cells and neutrophils were found to decrease during treatment and return to baseline levels by 3 months. The monocyte activation marker CD64 (FcγRI) was lower in participants whose cancer did not progress during the 12 month study follow up period, potentially giving insights into a biomarker of treatment success. Herein, we provide one of the most detailed descriptions of hematologic changes during low dose radiation treatment and during one year follow up. Low-dose radiation was associated with minor hematologic changes that mostly resolved by 3 months. (Clinical Trial Registered with the United States National Library of Medicine and National Institutes of Health under the title 'Low Dose Hemi-Body Radiation for Recurrent Prostate Cancer'; ID: NCT03196778).

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
