Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Rural and remote physicians face challenges including management of critically ill patients. At eleven British Columbia resident teaching sites, seven of which were rural, we developed interactive video simulation sessions for treating such patients, and these were video-preceptored by a remotely located physician providing real-time debriefing. Family medicine residents found this program acceptable and educational, felt it increased confidence in managing sick patients, and could lead to future rural experiences and retention. Given this program additionally decreases cost and time of simulations due to less travel, we anticipate similar benefits for other Canadian family medicine programs.

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.
