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.

Tissue leakage does not reliably measure nutrient delivery for repair
IH_Q_L3_M_G1_2_01 · #0
Across matched injuries, this hypothesis separates leakage from useful nutrient delivery. It predicts that measuring delivery to specific tissue spaces will predict repair better than combined blood-flow and leakage measures after accounting for local oxygen and cell survival.
Explains the gap: Does repair-zone recovery obey a Darcy-like bottleneck, where perfusion permeability, pressure gradient, and blood viscosity jointly set repair throughput, making local repair therapies fail despite molecular efficacy?

Repair fails when cells lose the electrical and mechanical signals that guide rebuilding
IH_Q_L3_M_G1_2_02 · #1
Repair depends on spatial electrical and mechanical instructions, with blood flow enabling repair without setting its pace. Restoring wound electrical signals should accelerate repair with blood flow, viscosity, and inflammation unchanged; scrambling field direction should impair repair with flow maintained.

Tissue tension controls immune sensitivity to cortisol and recovery from stress
IH_Q_L3_M_G3_1_05 · #49
The hypothesis says tissue mechanics govern immune responses to cortisol. Restoring those mechanics would speed inflammatory resolution and glucocorticoid responsiveness without lowering cortisol; matched cortisol suppression alone would leave recovery delayed.
Explains the gap: When cortisol availability rises but immune sensitivity falls, does preserving the mismatch improve recovery—or does deliberately lowering cortisol exposure restore cross-system coherence?

Failure to restore energy reserves limits barrier repair despite a preserved cell coating
IH_Q_L3_M_G4_5_04 · #98
After repeated mild stress, repair may be limited by energy and chemical recovery. The deciding observation is whether restoring tissue-specific energy reserves normalizes barrier leakage and function without changing baseline glycocalyx abundance, the amount of the sugar-rich cell-surface coating.
Explains the gap: Can glycocalyx preservation fail to improve real-world barrier resilience when infection, matrix stiffness, and delayed care co-occur, disproving it as the leading intervention target?

Barrier resilience is not a single biological trait
IH_Q_L3_M_G4_5_05 · #99
Vascular leakage, epithelial microbial exclusion and local containment of dysregulated populations have distinct drivers and recovery patterns. The hypothesis predicts that repeated challenge measurements will reveal weakly correlated organ- and exposure-specific dimensions with different intervention responses.
