Aldehydic load as an objective imaging biomarker of mild traumatic brain injury
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) is neurological impairment induced by biomechanical forces without structural brain damage, currently without an objective diagnostic tool. Downstream injury stems from oxidative damage leading to the production of neurotoxic aldehydes. A collagen-based 3D corticomimetic in vitro model of concussion was developed, confirming aldehyde production following impact. Total aldehyde levels were mapped in vivo following mTBI using a novel CEST-MRI contrast agent, ProxyNA 3 , in a new model of closed-head, awake, single-impact concussion in aged and young mice with aldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) deficiency. ProxyNA 3 -MRI was performed before impact, and on days two- and seven- post-impact. MRI signal enhancement significantly increased at two days post-injury prior to astrocyte activation at seven days post-injury. The data suggest that advanced age and ALDH2 deficiency contribute to increased aldehydic load following mTBI. Overall, ProxyNA 3 was capable of mapping concussion-associated aldehydes, supporting its application as an objective diagnostic tool for concussion.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
