Hepatocellular carcinoma despite long‐term survival in chronic tyrosinaemia I
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Tyrosinaemia I (fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase deficiency) is an autosomal recessive inborn error of tyrosine metabolism that produces liver failure in infancy or a more chronic course of liver disease with cirrhosis, often complicated by hepatocellular carcinoma, in childhood or early adolescence. We studied a 37-year-old woman with tyrosinaemia I whose severe liver disease in infancy and rickets during childhood resolved with dietary therapy. From 14 years of age she resumed an unrestricted diet with the continued presence of the biochemical features of tyrosinaemia, yet maintained normal liver function. In adult years she accumulated only small amounts of succinylacetone. Despite this evolution to a mild biochemical and clinical phenotype, she eventually developed hepatocellular carcinoma. Her fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase genotype consists of a splice mutation, IVS6-1g>t, and a novel missense mutation, Q279R. Studies of resected liver demonstrated the absence of hydrolytic activity and of immunological expression of fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase in liver tumour. In nontumoral areas, however, 53% of normal hydrolytic activity and immunologically present fumarylacetoacetate hydrolase was found. This case demonstrates the high risk of liver cancer in tyrosinaemia I even in a seemingly favourable biological environment.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
