Abstract
Airway hyperresponsiveness, particularly the ability of airways to narrow excessively in response to stimuli that normally cause little airway narrowing in nonasthmatic subjects, is a characteristic feature of asthma and the basis of its symptoms. Although airway hyperresponsiveness may be partly the result of alterations in the contractile phenotype of the airway smooth muscle, there is evidence that it may also be caused by structural changes in the airway wall, collectively termed airway remodeling. Airway remodeling is defined as changes in composition, quantity, and (or) organization of cellular and molecular constituents of the airway wall. Airway wall remodeling that occurs in asthma can result in functional alterations because of quantitative changes in airway wall compartments, and (or) because of changes in the biochemical composition or material properties of the various constituents of the airway wall. This brief review summarizes the quantitative changes in the dimensions and organization of the airway wall compartments that have been described and explains how structural alterations may lead to the exaggerated airway narrowing.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
