Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Intersex pediatric surgery is a family of surgical practices performed by pediatric urologists which aim to clarify the sex of an individual with differences/disorders of sexual development, specifically those with ‘intersex’ conditions. It aims to functionally and aesthetically disambiguate an individuals’ binary sex that is obscured by intersex conditions. I ethically reassess intersex pediatric surgery in light of contemporary biotechnology, formal specialization in pediatric urology and long-term data on the efficacy of intersex pediatric surgery, finding that there are only select contexts in which intersex pediatric surgery is morally justifiable. I develop novel, operationalizable and testimonially-informed moral criteria to regulate intersex pediatric surgery, working out the details for how medical professionals in pediatric healthcare facilities are best able to facilitate and augment the decision-making of parents as they decide whether intersex pediatric surgery is in the best interests of their child with intersex conditions.

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.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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.
