ABO-Incompatible Lung Transplantation in an Infant
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Waitlist mortality continues to be a limiting factor for all solid-organ transplant programs. Strategies that could improve this situation should be considered. We report the first ABO-incompatible lung transplantation in an infant. The recipient infant was ABO blood group A1 and the donor group B. The recipient was diagnosed with surfactant protein B deficiency, which is a fatal condition and lung transplantation is the only definitive therapy. At 32 days of age, a bilateral lung transplantation from a donation after cardiac death (DCD) donor was performed. Intraoperative plasma exchange was the only preparatory procedure performed. No further interventions were required as the recipient isohemagglutinins were negative before transplant and have remained negative to date. At 6 months posttransplant, the recipient is at home, thriving, with normal development. This outcome suggests that ABO-incompatible lung transplantation is feasible in infants, providing another option to offer life-saving lung transplantation in this age range.

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.
