Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

OBJECTIVE: To compile and analyse current literature to provide a comprehensive evidence related to the potential links between dermatological manifestations of skin disorders and infertility. Methods: The systematic review comprised literature search up to December 31, 2022, on Pubmed, Medline, Excerpta Medica dataBASE and Global Health databases. All original and published studies in the English language reporting on the dermatological manifestations in humans, associated with or contributing to infertility both in females and males were included. Quality assessment was performed independently by two reviewers using the Joanna Briggs Institute critical appraisal tools. RESULTS: There were 10 studies comprising 268,570 subjects. Significant positive association between skin manifestations and infer tility were found in the studies reporting on the dermatological manifestations of polycystic ovarian syndrome, dermatomyositis, atopic dermatitis and leprosy (p<0.05), while the study reporting on the association between skin manifestation of systemic sclerosis did not report a significant result (p>0.05). Conclusion: There was a potential association between cutaneous manifestations of various dermatological disorders and infer tility.

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.
