Generalized Joint Laxity in Igloolik Eskimos and in Island Lake Amerindians
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The findings of generalized joint laxity studies in the Igloolik-Hall Beach Eastern Arctic population (n = 298) and the Cree-Ojibwa Indians of Island Lake Reserve, Manitoba (n = 396) conducted in 1972 and 1973 are reported. Generalized joint laxity (GJL) is a condition in which excessive range of motion is present in several pairs of joints and probably represents the upper end of a spectrum of range of normal joint mobility. GJL has been shown to be present in a higher percentage of Congenital Hip Disease (CHD) cases than controls. In the Island Lake population no correlation was shown between CHD and GJL. Both populations demonstrated a gradual decrease in GJL with age with the decrease slower in females. No individuals over 19 years of age were positive for GJL. Unexpectedly, Eskimos exhibited a greater degree of GJL through all age groups, which was most significant between the ages of 5 to 9 years (p < .001). In neither population at any age category were the sexes significantly different.

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.
