Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Corneal endothelial diseases comprise a spectrum of conditions that critically affect the health and transparency of the cornea, posing unique challenges for ophthalmologists. The most prevalent among these is Fuchs’ endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD), which accounts for approximately 39% of all corneal transplants globally. Bullous keratopathy (BK) can affect the entire cornea, leading to painful blisters that may become infected. Other rarer pathologies, such as iridocorneal endothelial syndrome, posterior polymorphous corneal dystrophy, and congenital hereditary endothelial dystrophy, present unique diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. Additionally, graft failure remains a notable indication for treatment. High-risk cases experience failure rates exceeding 35% within 3 years, with endothelial rejection accounting for half of the cases. Corneal transplants have been considered the gold standard for decades, with advancements in surgical techniques leading to shorter operating times, faster visual recovery, and improved outcomes. However, the growing global shortage of transplant-grade donor tissue further complicates treatment, underscoring the urgent need for innovative approaches such as genetic and cell-based therapies.

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.
