Ileal adenocarcinoma in a mild phenotype of abetalipoproteinemia
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abetalipoproteinemia (ABL) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder that is characterized by defective assembly and secretion of plasma apolipoprotein (apo) B-containing lipoproteins. This disorder results from mutations in the MTP gene encoding the microsomal triglyceride transfer protein. We report a 58-year-old male homozygote for a missense mutation, S590I, in MTP. The patient had a lifelong history of fat malabsorption, but was only diagnosed with ABL at age 52, based upon such classic features as absence of apo B-containing lipoproteins, acanthocytosis, atypical retinitis pigmentosa and markedly depressed serum beta-carotene concentration. However, his presentation was notable not only by survival to the sixth decade of life without specific treatment, but also by the absence of neurological involvement and by normal serum vitamin E concentration. He subsequently developed adenocarcinoma of the ileum, which required ileal resection. Therefore, this missense mutation appears to be associated with a late-presenting and relatively mild ABL phenotype that lacks some classical features, particularly neuropathy, but appears to be associated with other atypical features, specifically small intestinal cancer.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 teacher head, not a consensus.
