Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a chronic, highly prevalent, and debilitating mental disorder associated with significant illness and economic burden globally. Exposure to trauma (eg, physical, sexual, emotional abuse, and/or physical, and emotional neglect) is common among individuals with MDD. Persons with MDD and a history of trauma often exhibit an attenuated response to conventional serotonergic antidepressants compared to those with non-traumatized depression. Emerging evidence indicates that exposure to trauma is associated with increased inflammatory markers [eg, C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α)] as well as glutamatergic dysregulation in the central nervous system (CNS). It is hypothesized that individuals with MDD and a history of trauma may be conceptualized as a distinct bio-phenotype compared to non-traumatized depression. Furthermore, preliminary evidence positions select glutamatergic modulators as potential, novel, mechanistically-informed therapeutic strategies that may provide benefit to persons with elevated inflammation and glutamatergic dysregulation.

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. 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.
