Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Assessments of serum-autoantibodies in fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) date back to the 1980s and have yielded inconsistent results. Based on a new passive transfer paradigm, since 2021 causative involvement of immunoglobulin G-mediated autoimmunity in severe FMS has been demonstrated in several studies, which have included UK, Swedish, and Canadian patients. These findings open the path to the development of novel diagnostic and immune-therapeutic approaches. Autoantibody targets and downstream mechanisms and the molecular processes that translate infection-, toxicity-, or stress-triggers into the FMS immune response in genetically or otherwise vulnerable individuals require study. These results in FMS also suggest that other chronic pain conditions or nonpainful symptom-based disorders may similarly be caused by noninflammatory minimally destructive autoantibody-mediated autoimmunity, thus offering hope for large groups 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.
