SciDEX — Task: [Exchange] Enrich top SEA-AD hypothesis with PubMe

## REOPENED TASK — CRITICAL CONTEXT This task was previously marked 'done' but the audit could not verify the work actually landed on main. The original work may have been: - Lost to an orphan branch / failed push - Only a spec-file edit (no code changes) - Already addressed by other agents in the meantime - Made obsolete by subsequent work **Before doing anything else:** 1. **Re-evaluate the task in light of CURRENT main state.** Read the spec and the relevant files on origin/main NOW. The original task may have been written against a state of the code that no longer exists. 2. **Verify the task still advances SciDEX's aims.** If the system has evolved past the need for this work (different architecture, different priorities), close the task with reason "obsolete: " instead of doing it. 3. **Check if it's already done.** Run `git log --grep=''` and read the related commits. If real work landed, complete the task with `--no-sha-check --summary 'Already done in '`. 4. **Make sure your changes don't regress recent functionality.** Many agents have been working on this codebase. Before committing, run `git log --since='24 hours ago' -- ` to see what changed in your area, and verify you don't undo any of it. 5. **Stay scoped.** Only do what this specific task asks for. Do not refactor, do not "fix" unrelated issues, do not add features that weren't requested. Scope creep at this point is regression risk. If you cannot do this task safely (because it would regress, conflict with current direction, or the requirements no longer apply), escalate via `orchestra escalate` with a clear explanation instead of committing.

[Exchange] Enrich top SEA-AD hypothesis with validated PubMed citations2026-04-02

Spec File

[Exchange] Enrich top SEA-AD hypothesis with PubMed citations and evidence

ID: 3b1eaa64-00a Priority: 96 Type: one_shot Status: complete

Goal

Enrich the top SEA-AD hypothesis (h-seaad-v4-26ba859b, ACSL4-Driven Ferroptotic Priming, score 0.82) with validated PubMed citations. Fix incorrect PMIDs, fetch missing abstracts, and add new relevant citations.

Acceptance Criteria

☑ Validate all existing PubMed citations against PubMed API

☑ Fix incorrect PMIDs (3 corrected, 1 journal name fixed, 1 irrelevant removed)

☑ Fetch missing abstracts for citations lacking them (12 abstracts fetched)

☑ Add new high-quality PubMed citations (3 evidence_for, 1 evidence_against)

☑ Work log updated with timestamped entry

Approach

Query database for top SEA-AD hypothesis (h-seaad-v4-26ba859b, score 0.82)

Validate all 16 existing PMIDs against PubMed esummary API

Fix mismatched PMIDs: 28777374→27842070, 33444476→26890777, 25524661→26400084

Fix journal name: PMID 37824655 (Science, not Nature)

Remove irrelevant citation: PMID 41918944 (cutaneous, not neurodegenerative)

Fetch abstracts for 13 citations missing them via PubMed efetch API

Add 3 new evidence_for citations (ACSL4-brain ferroptosis, scRNA-seq ferroptosis markers, lipid-ferroptosis link)

Add 1 new evidence_against citation (alternative microglial death mechanisms)

Work Log

2026-04-13 — Slot 7 (re-opened audit)

Re-audit: previous work (a0d6837fd) created script but WRONG PMIDs were still linked to hypothesis_papers
Verified via PubMed API: 28777374 (HMGA1/cancer), 33444476 (cardiovascular hESC), 25524661 (HIV disability), 41918944 (cutaneous melanoma) all incorrect
4 wrong papers removed from hypothesis_papers: paper-c550c030185f, paper-08c6f546f376, paper-e52dd3523c3e, paper-210cbde013f4
Correct papers (27842070 ACSL4/ferroptosis, 26890777 brain iron, 26400084 GPX4 ablation) were already correctly linked
New papers (35325805, 36297287, 39510074, 35691251) were already correctly linked
Final state: 35 evidence_for (was 46 with 11 wrong), 7 evidence_against (unchanged)
Verified hypothesis page HTTP 200 at http://localhost:8000/hypothesis/h-seaad-v4-26ba859b
Result: Done — top SEA-AD hypothesis enriched with VALID PubMed citations

2026-04-02 — Slot 6

Validated all existing PMIDs via PubMed esummary API
Found 3 incorrect PMIDs, 1 wrong journal name, 1 irrelevant citation
Fetched 12 missing abstracts via PubMed efetch API
Added 3 new evidence_for: PMID:35325805 (ACSL4-brain ferroptosis), PMID:36297287 (scRNA-seq ferroptosis), PMID:39510074 (lipid-ferroptosis)
Added 1 new evidence_against: PMID:35691251 (alternative death mechanisms)
Final state: 22 evidence_for (was 20), 7 evidence_against (was 6)
Verified hypothesis page renders at http://localhost:8000/hypothesis/h-seaad-v4-26ba859b
Result: Done — top SEA-AD hypothesis enriched with validated PubMed citations
