Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract FGF21 is a metabolic hormone induced by fasting, metabolic stress, and mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos) defects that cause mitochondrial diseases (MitoD). Here we report that acute psychosocial stress alone (without physical exertion) decreases serum FGF21 by an average of 20% ( p <0.0001) in healthy controls but increases FGF21 by 32% ( p <0.0001) in people with MitoD—pointing to a functional interaction between the stress response and OxPhos capacity in regulating FGF21. We further define co-activation patterns between FGF21 and stress-related neuroendocrine hormones and report novel associations between FGF21 and psychosocial factors related to stress and wellbeing, highlighting a potential role for FGF21 in meeting the energetic needs of acute and chronic psychosocial stress.

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.
