Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

ABSTRACT Introduction Sickle cell disease involves acute and chronic complications requiring timely recognition and multidisciplinary care. General internal medicine (GIM) physicians often manage affected adults with limited exposure and few supports. Methods We conducted a cross‐sectional web‐based survey of GIM physicians assessing comfort and preferred supports. Results Eighteen of approximately 85 physicians responded (21%). Common encounters included chronic pain (83%), vaso‐occlusive crises (67%), and acute chest syndrome (44%), yet none reported being comfortable managing complications. Discomfort was greatest for rare complications, and peripartum and perioperative care. Limited exposure was the main driver. Preferred supports included protocols, guides, and decision tools. Conclusion Targeted tools and specialist support are urgently needed to improve care and physician comfort. Trial Registration The authors have confirmed clinical trial registration is not needed for this submission.

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.
