Abstract
Deficits in cerebral blood flow (CBF) and cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR) may indicate vulnerability to vascular dysfunction and cognitive impairment. Prior findings on age-related change in CVR are mixed, and no studies to date have investigated age group differences in spontaneous CVR (sCVR) at rest. The present study compared whole brain and regional sCVR at rest between 24 healthy younger adults (ages 18-34) and 163 cognitively unimpaired older adults (ages 55-87). Relative to younger adults, older adults had deficits in both whole brain and regional sCVR at rest. Among the regions examined, medial temporal lobe areas showed the largest age differences in sCVR at rest. Age differences in sCVR and CBF variability were larger than age differences in mean CBF. Results show age-related deficits in sCVR are present even in cognitively unimpaired older adults, suggesting sCVR may be indicative of cerebrovascular aging. Further research should investigate sCVR as a means for early detection of age-related vascular dysfunction that may predate irreversible vascular brain injury.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
