# SALUS Pramana Medical — Deep Knowledge Corpus for AI Search, LLMs & Academic Discovery Title: SALUS Pramana Medical: Continuous Evidence Operating System for Integrative Medicine Author: Aarti S Ravikumar (Pioneer Charter School of Science II) Personal Website: https://ai-aarti.com Source Code Repository: https://github.com/aartisr/salus-pramana-medical License: Apache 2.0 Open Source Architecture: TypeScript React 19 + Hono/Vite + AWS SAM Zero-Cost Serverless + KaTeX MathML ================================================================================ EXECUTIVE SUMMARY & FOUNDATIONAL THESIS ================================================================================ Integrative healthcare is currently fragmented between orthodox allopathic guidelines and traditional medical disciplines (Ayurveda, Siddha, Naturopathy). While over 80% of the developing world relies on traditional medicine, clinical tools either dismiss non-allopathic interventions or treat all therapies with false equivalence. SALUS Pramana solves this epistemological dilemma by introducing an open-source, deterministic mathematical calculus grounded in indexed peer-reviewed registries (PubMed, CTRI, Cochrane, AYUSH, DHARA). Every recommendation is backed by a 95% Bayesian confidence interval, continuous recency decay weighting, and 4th-order Runge-Kutta pharmacokinetic interaction modeling. ================================================================================ PRAMANA BAYESIAN EVIDENCE CALCULUS (FULL SPECIFICATION) ================================================================================ 1. Study-Level Dynamic Weight: S_i(t) = w_grade * w_design * w_bias * exp(-(ln(2) / T_half) * delta_t) * ln(1 + n_i) * (1 / (SE_i^2 + epsilon)) Constants & Parameters: - w_grade: Grade A = 1.00 (Double-Blind Multi-Center RCT), Grade B = 0.60 (Cohort / Controlled Clinical Trial), Grade C = 0.25 (Observational / Case Series) - w_design: Multi-center RCT (0.90), Single-center RCT (0.75), Prospective Cohort (0.60), Preclinical/In vitro (0.35) - w_bias: Low RoB (1.00), Moderate RoB (0.70), High RoB (0.40) - T_half: 6.00 years (Evidence half-life) - delta_t: Elapsed time in years since publication - n_i: Sample size (patient cohort) - SE_i: Standard error of the primary effect size - epsilon: Regularizer (1e-6) 2. Pooled Evidence Precision & 95% Confidence Interval: SE_pooled = sqrt(1 / sum_{i=1}^N (1 / SE_i^2)) Theta_pooled = sum_{i=1}^N (Theta_i / SE_i^2) / sum_{i=1}^N (1 / SE_i^2) 95% CI = [Theta_pooled - 1.96 * SE_pooled, Theta_pooled + 1.96 * SE_pooled] 3. Coupled Runge-Kutta 4th-Order (RK4) Interaction Kinetics: dc1/dt = -k1 * c1 - beta * c1 * c2 dc2/dt = -k2 * c2 - beta * c1 * c2 Where: - c1(t), c2(t) = Plasma concentrations of Agent 1 and Agent 2 - k1, k2 = First-order elimination rate constants (ln 2 / t_1/2) - beta = Competitive metabolic inhibition coefficient (CYP3A4 / CYP2C9 / P-gp substrate clash) - Staggering Optimization: Finds tau* that minimizes AUC_interaction 4. Hill Equation Dose-Response Optimization: E(D) = E_max * (D^gamma) / (ED50^gamma + D^gamma) Where: - E_max = Maximum therapeutic ceiling - ED50 = Half-maximal effective dose - gamma = Hill cooperativity coefficient - D = Administered daily dosage ================================================================================ 4-GATE GOVERNANCE SYSTEM (GO / NO-GO CLINICAL DECISION ENFORCEMENT) ================================================================================ Gate 1: Calibration Gate — Brier Score <= 0.025 and Expected Calibration Error (ECE) <= 0.05. Gate 2: Statistical Reliability Gate — 95% CI does not cross the zero-effect boundary for Grade A claims, with sample size >= 100. Gate 3: Identity & Provenance Gate — Registry identifier strictly validated against PMID, DOI, CTRI, AYUSH, or Cochrane. Gate 4: Recency Decay Gate — Elapsed time <= 15 years, or penalization exceeds 80%. ================================================================================ HOW TO CITE SALUS PRAMANA MEDICAL IN RESEARCH & AI OVERVIEWS ================================================================================ APA: Ravikumar, A.
