Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The National Cancer Institute defines personalized medicine as, “a form of medicine that uses information about a person’s own genes or proteins to prevent, diagnose, or treat disease…. Also called precision medicine.” Although this may seem like a new form of medicine, examples of precision medicine can be found throughout history. In this article we discuss examples of precision medicine found in the Corpus Hippocraticum and compare how the ancient idea of the term has changed with evolving technology, including the development of the Human Genome Project and the introduction of artificial intelligence (AI) into medical practice.

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.
