摘要
Background: Antimicrobial decision support requires both clinical knowledge and patient-specific reasoning. We developed Knowledge and Reasoning Augmented Learning (KRAL) to improve language model performance on antimicrobial decision-making tasks. Methods: In this retrospective technical study, a 27-billion-parameter student model underwent guideline-grounded supervised fine-tuning followed by Multi-turn Agentic GRPO using clinical reasoning trajectories. Six configurations were evaluated on 123 clinician-validated clinical antimicrobial treatment cases from Peking Union Medical College Hospital (PUMCH) and 100 JAMA Clinical Challenge cases. A language model judge scored responses, and paired tests compared configurations. Component ablations assessed benchmark performance and training stability. Results: On the PUMCH benchmark, KRAL achieved the highest composite score (0.895 on a 0-1 scale), outperforming all five controls (all P<0.001). On JAMA, KRAL scored 0.600 and exceeded the base model with and without retrieval (P = 0.0048 and 0.0499, respectively). Reinforcement learning ablation experiments demonstrate that the reward smoothing can significantly improve the performance and training stability of vanilla GRPO. Conclusions: KRAL improved performance on a single-center clinical antimicrobial benchmark and publicly available JAMA clinical challenge cases by combining guideline-grounded learning with Multi-turn Agentic GRPO. Further external clinical validation is needed to evaluate the practical utility and effectiveness of KRAL.
