📅 PUBMED DAILY TRIAGE — 2026-06-12

Window: 2026-06-11T09:00Z → 2026-06-12T09:00Z (CRDT) Topics scanned: 10 | Articles reviewed: ~35 | Candidates evaluated: ~35 High priority: 0 | Standard: 17 | Low/archive: 5 | Unsolicited finds: 0 Run status: SUCCESS


🔴🟠 HIGH PRIORITY (8+) — Best Finds by Topic

No HIGH-priority articles today (score ≥8 not reached). Best overall: 7/10.

Topic summary for HIGH threshold:


🟢⚪ STANDARD (5–7) — Top by Topic

CBC-based diagnostics and ML in hematology

Cardiovascular-metabolic: GLP-1, SGLT2, cardiometabolic risk

Rare diseases with high unmet need

Hematologic malignancies (AML, MDS, CLL, MPN, lymphoma)

Novel therapeutics: immunotherapy, CAR-T, targeted therapy

Early cancer detection: liquid biopsy, ctDNA, cfDNA

AI/ML in clinical diagnostics and imaging

Precision oncology and genomic medicine

Aging, longevity, and population health


💡 UNSOLICITED FINDS

None today. Sentinel scan (1087 raw, top-10 reviewed) — all high-signal candidates were already captured by watchlist queries.

Topics with zero 8+ articles this run: ALL (no HIGH-priority articles today)


🔧 RUN NOTES

  1. T2 CBC/ML — ZERO STREAK BROKEN: After 8 consecutive days with zero results, the pivot query (broadened to include predictive/clinical blood count usage) succeeded. First article (PMID 42275170, AJRCCM) is the strongest T2 result in weeks — WBC count as a treatment-response modifier for antibiotic choice in sepsis, derived from the ACORN RCT. Recommend maintaining this broader query while monitoring for ML-specific CBC articles.

  2. T3 Liquid biopsy — Topic drift: Top results today were dominated by transplant-related cfDNA (kidney transplant assay comparison, face transplant rodent model), not cancer-specific ctDNA. Core cancer liquid biopsy articles may be in the remaining 9 unreviewed records beyond the top-3 sample. Recommend investigating the remaining T3 IDs (42277247, 42274209, 42277406, 42277396, 42276503, 42276999) in the next run or as a supplemental fetch.

  3. T8 Aging/longevity — Query note: The strict humans[MeSH] NOT (fish OR rat OR mouse OR mice OR drosophila OR worm OR insect) filter successfully eliminated non-human noise (only 2 raw results, both human-relevant). However, yield is now very low. Consider relaxing slightly to include primary research papers without the full animal exclusion list, or expanding the window to 48h for this topic.

  4. T9 Rare diseases: Three articles (42276024, 42274988, 42274032) were not retrieved within the per-run cap and are deferred. Recommend fetching in next run's incremental window.

  5. No HIGH-priority articles (score ≥8) found today. Today was a moderate signal day; no Telegram alerts sent. This is unusual given typically 3–5 HIGH articles per run. Possible explanation: Friday publication cadence (many journals have lower new-article indexing on late-week CRDT dates).

  6. Rolling 7-day view (from state): Topics consistently producing zero 8+ articles across recent days: T8 (Aging/longevity) — low yield with strict filter; T2 (CBC/ML) — resolved today; T4 (AI/ML) — predominantly review articles scoring ≤5.
