Lightweight open-source reasoning large language model for evidence synthesis screening

Objectives: To evaluate performance and efficiency of a lightweight open-source reasoning large language model (LLM) against an expert-derived reference standard for screening scientific publication databases. Materials and methods: Two expert reviewers screened subsets of database records across 3 stages: (1) base eligibility (n = 200), (2) obesity focus (n = 200), and (3) women of reproductive age focus (n = 150). The LLM (gpt-oss-20b) screened all records (n = 20 118). Performance (F1-score and sensitivity [r…

How to verify without trusting this page

Fetch the canonical text of any version from /api/record/TRV-2026-2240 and hash it yourself — for example shasum -a 256 on the saved canonical field. The result must equal content_hash, and each version’s text ends with prev:followed by the prior version’s hash (version 1 chains to 64 zeros). If a single character of any version had been altered since certification, the chain would not reproduce.
