Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Climate change is the greatest threat to human health in the 21st century and the health-care system is a substantial contributor, being responsible for about 5% of worldwide carbon emissions.1 Every health-care investigation and intervention has a carbon footprint, and evidence exists for the overuse of unnecessary, low-value care in health systems worldwide.2 The sustainable health-care community has therefore leveraged Choosing Wisely concepts of so-called do-not-do lists and social prescribing (eg, nature, exercise, and diet) to address overuse in health care.

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.

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.
