Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Overweight and obesity are associated with an increased risk of metabolic developmental disorders, such as diabetes and cardiovascular disease. However, in addition to these metabolic diseases, excess body weight is associated with various cancers, including cancer of the gastrointestinal tract, such as liver, pancreatic and colon cancers. Inflammation is a common feature of obesity and cancer. In addition to diet and physical factors that contribute to the intestinal barrier (mucus, epithelial cell renewal and tight junction proteins), is important to consider the immune intestinal system. Similar to obesity and metabolic disorders, inflammation is recognized as the enabler of cancer development, providing support for multiple hallmark features of cancers, including the supply of bioactive molecules, such as growth, survival, and pro-angiogenic factors. At an evolutionary level, the relationship between humans and bacteria is so close that we can think of our body as a sort of superorganism made up of human and microbial cells. It is not only the action of individual microorganisms that defines a possible pathological condition. Even the general composition of the microbiota can contribute to the development of a tumor and one of the most studied conditions, known for its influence on the intestinal bacterial community, is obesity which is associated with a reduction of variability within the microbiota composition. In the future, bacteria could therefore be a valuable ally in the fight against cancer.

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.
