Abstract
Abstract. The objective of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of various diagnostic modalities in the assessment of patients with massive lower gastrointestinal bleeding. The charts of all patients admitted to a McGill University affiliated teaching hospital with the diagnosis of lower gastro-intestinal bleeding over a 25-year period were reviewed. There were 136 patients who underwent 202 admissions. The information documented included demographics on age, gender, co-morbid disease, prescribed medications, requirements for blood transfusions, orthostatic change in blood pressure, acute drop in hematocrit (to < 30%), and exclusion of upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Among the 202 admitted patients there were 116 men and 86 women), with an average age of 70 years (range 16–95 years). At least one significant medical disease was found in 93 % of these patients; and 20 % were on aspirin and 5 % on anticoagulants at the time of diagnosis. Rigid or flexible sigmoidoscopy was performed in 68 and 18 patients, respectively, with a definitive diagnosis made in 2.9 % and

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; the direct Gemma label and the distilled Codex classifier agree on what is shown here.
