Hypotheses
Every hypothesis every run has written, newest run first. Each row says where it is: being named, waiting for the rest of its run, checked for duplicates, approved and being explained, published. A duplicate names the earlier hypothesis it restates. A published row links to its public page; nothing else is a link.

| Barrier strengthening does not determine lasting recovery problems after infection IH_Q_L3_M_G3_2_01 · #0 The hypothesis treats lingering recovery problems as distinct post-infectious syndromes and partly linked measurement artifacts. In a human challenge study, direct measures of tissue leakage and tracer clearance would add no predictive value beyond baseline clinical severity after adjustment. Explains the gap: When barrier strengthening, immune surveillance, sleep disruption, and ordinary infection coincide, which interaction—not any single pathway—determines whether clearance completes or recovery debt becomes permanent? | Radical life extension of human life span | 2026-09-07 00:44 | Interfaces and barriers | Awaiting review Awaiting a curator |
| Mistimed signals between body systems keep recovery incomplete after infection IH_Q_L3_M_G3_2_02 · #1 In humans, infection during disrupted sleep is proposed to leave body systems out of step, prolonging recovery. At matched immune-signal concentrations and pathogen burdens, restoring coordinated timing would improve barrier recovery, clearance and cognition more than continuous anti-inflammatory treatment.

| Adaptive treatment improves inflammatory recovery by correcting the body's state estimates IH_Q_L3_M_G3_4_01 · #5 The hypothesis says recovery depends on how the body estimates its condition. In controlled human challenge studies, treatment guided by multiple measurements would outperform identical treatment at fixed times or inflammatory-signal thresholds, especially during repeated schedule disruption.

| Energy allocation determines whether inflammation treatment works IH_Q_L3_M_G3_4_02 · #6 During infection, stress, or circadian misalignment, limited energy forces competing demands. The hypothesis predicts that matching treatment to energy state improves recovery even when cytokine patterns stay unchanged, while cytokine-only treatment fails when energy reserves are low.

| Tissue mechanics sustain inflammation and change how treatment works IH_Q_L3_M_G3_4_03 · #7 The hypothesis says mechanical changes in barrier and supporting tissues sustain inflammation. It predicts that restoring tissue mechanics reduces inflammatory spillover and recovery debt without proportional cytokine suppression, and that stiffness predicts treatment response better than baseline cytokine concentration.

| Distinct biological processes make inflammation look like one treatment problem IH_Q_L3_M_G3_4_04 · #8 Inflammation measurements pool distinct processes. Separating them should predict treatment choice and recovery better than C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6), or combined inflammatory scores; repeated sampling and functional outcomes would test this claim.

| Barrier leaks cause systemic failure when connections cross a critical threshold IH_Q_L3_M_G3_1_02 · #11 The hypothesis predicts that transport between organs or inflammatory compartments crosses a critical threshold: tracer spread and accumulated recovery burden rise before standard signs of decline, while greater clearance capacity shifts that threshold despite persistent local injury. Explains the gap: Does barrier-clearance failure exhibit a percolation threshold, where individually tolerable leaks suddenly become a self-sustaining systemic network—and can that threshold be detected before functional decline? | Radical life extension of human life span | 2026-09-07 00:44 | Structure and topology | Awaiting review Awaiting a curator |
| Learned danger signals keep inflammation active after barriers recover IH_Q_L3_M_G3_1_03 · #12 Immune and vessel-lining cells may retain a learned danger response after barrier recovery. Resetting that response would restore recovery and function while measured barrier permeability remains essentially unchanged.

| Leaks become self-sustaining when the body's repair resources run out IH_Q_L3_M_G3_1_04 · #13 The hypothesis says leaks persist when immediate survival consumes resources needed for repair and clearance. Greater energy reserves would prevent the transition despite unchanged leak number and distribution; energy restriction or sleep loss would lower its threshold.

| Circulating communities sustain inflammation across organs after a barrier leak closes IH_Q_L3_M_G3_1_05 · #14 Microbes, viruses, fungi, extracellular vesicles and metabolites in blood and mucosal compartments may sustain illness across organs. Their signatures should predict spread and incomplete recovery better than permeability; removing or replacing the signal should improve recovery without full barrier repair.

| Restoring selective tissue barriers preserves exchange and reduces inflammatory burden IH_Q_L3_M_G3_5_01 · #15 Epithelial and vascular interfaces must exclude inflammatory material while preserving nutrient exchange and immune sampling. Improved selectivity should reduce translocation and recovery debt; increased pathogen persistence or nutrient malabsorption would falsify the claim.

| Aging disrupts the timing of barrier opening and closing IH_Q_L3_M_G3_5_02 · #16 The hypothesis says aging disrupts brief, coordinated openings in epithelial and vascular barriers. A timed, reversible opening during infection or injury would improve clearance and recovery without adding cumulative inflammatory exposure, while continuous tightening would worsen clearance.

| Tighter barriers worsen retention when tissue drainage is mechanically blocked IH_Q_L3_M_G3_5_03 · #17 The hypothesis places the bottleneck in tissue structure: tightening the epithelial barrier prolongs retention and inflammation. At equal epithelial permeability, restoring tissue flexibility and drainage would shorten tracer residence time and inflammatory recovery half-time more than further tightening. Explains the gap: Can barrier-first containment be decisively falsified by showing that strengthening epithelial selectivity worsens whole-person outcomes through impaired immune surveillance, nutrient exchange, or delayed clearance? | Radical life extension of human life span | 2026-09-07 00:44 | Structure and topology | Awaiting review Awaiting a curator |
| Strengthening barriers can worsen recovery by diverting scarce resources IH_Q_L3_M_G3_5_04 · #18 When resources are scarce, stronger epithelial barriers may leave less energy for immune clearance and repair.

| Small defects in tissue barriers and waste clearance store recovery debt IH_Q_L3_M_G1_1_01 · #20 If true, small leaks and incomplete waste removal leave recovery unfinished despite normal conventional markers. Tracer measurements would predict later thinking and movement recovery better than organ-specific inflammation markers, and restoring clearance would help without changing the initial immune response.

| Conflicting recovery signals across body systems cause recovery debt IH_Q_L3_M_G1_1_02 · #21 The hypothesis says tissues can recover while conflicting signals delay recovery of the whole organism.

| Recovery debt is stored in tissue structure and mechanical tension IH_Q_L3_M_G1_1_03 · #22 The hypothesis says persistent tension in the material surrounding cells stores recovery debt.

| A lasting shift in microbes and hormones drives recovery debt IH_Q_L3_M_G1_1_05 · #24 Repeated challenges shift the body's microbial and hormone environment, sustaining stress after individual organs recover.

| Recovery depends on restoring each tissue interface at its own pace IH_Q_L3_M_G1_3_01 · #25 In human challenge studies, recovery would depend on distinct tissue-interface processes recovering at their own rates. Separate measures of permeability, mucus transport, vessel-surface integrity, and immune-cell access would predict recovery better than a combined barrier-leak score.

| A brief immune response must reset tissue clocks before repair can proceed IH_Q_L3_M_G1_3_02 · #26 The hypothesis makes a brief, local immune response necessary to restore tissue repair timing after disruption.

| Persistent impairment across functions reflects separate recoveries or measurement artifacts IH_Q_L3_M_G1_4_05 · #34 In people recovering after stress, persistent difficulties need not reflect one shared biological state.
