Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is an autosomal dominant neurocutaneous condition characterized by skin pigmentation, skeletal anomalies and cancer, and is associated with pathogenic variants in the NF1 gene. While NF1 is fully penetrant, symptoms range from mild freckling to the development of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNSTs), the leading cause of death in NF1, indicating variable expressivity. Most patients develop benign neurofibromas, which progress into aggressive MPNSTs in 8-13% of patients.

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.
