Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Cell phones are increasingly used by Health Care Workers (HCW). Dr.Moopen's Medical College is a 450 bedded tertiary care hospital in Wayanad, Kerala. We cultured sample from 100 cell phones used by HCWs in various ICUs in the hospital. The swab was pre-enriched in thioglycollate broth overnight and were processed using conventional culture methods. Ninety two samples (92%) were grown some bacteria. Half of our samples were Coagulase Negative Staphylococcus (50%) and one forth of samples (25%) were Aerobic Spore Former. Eighteen percent samples were Gram Negative Bacilli, including 7 Enterobacter of which 2 were ESBL producers. There should be a decontamination protocol for cell phones

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.
