Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Human papillomavirus (HPV)-related anal infection is high among African gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (MSM). In Kenya, queer men living with HPV-related anal warts often avoid health facilities, fearing homophobic retaliation from providers. In this paper, we present data collected over 24 months of ethnographic research, foregrounding the therapeutic trajectories of 35 men with advanced cases of anal warts requiring surgical intervention. The therapeutic trajectories we present here help to make visible how iatrogenesis exceeds the clinic's socio-spatial, temporal, and institutional confines and spills out into the intimate, social, and political spheres of human existence.

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.
