Abstract
OBJECTIVE: To determine the efficacy of sustained topical therapy with dorzolamide hydrochloride, 2%, on visual acuity and cystic macular lesions in patients with juvenile X-linked retinoschisis (XLRS). DESIGN: Retrospective analysis. SETTING: University hospital, tertiary care referral center. PATIENTS: Twenty-nine eyes of 15 patients with XLRS receiving treatment with the topical dorzolamide formulation for 4 to 41 months were enrolled. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Changes in visual acuity, cystic macular lesions, and central foveal zone thickness on optical coherence tomography during follow-up for the duration of treatment. RESULTS: Among the 15 patients with XLRS, 20 eyes (69%) of 11 patients showed a positive response to treatment. Five of the 20 eyes (25%) in 3 of the 11 patients showed an initial response and a subsequent rebound of macular cysts. In 4 eyes (14%) of 3 patients, there was no response to treatment, but the macular cysts did not worsen compared with the baseline level. In 5 additional eyes (17%) of 4 patients, there was no response to treatment, and the macular cysts worsened when compared with the baseline level. Sixteen eyes (55%) of 12 patients had improvement in best-corrected visual acuity by at least 7 letters in at least 1 eye at the most recent follow-up visit. Seventeen eyes (59%) of 10 patients showed a reduction in the central foveal zone thickness in at least 1 eye when compared with the pretreatment level. CONCLUSION: Patients with XLRS have the potential to experience a beneficial effect from sustained treatment with dorzolamide, 2%.

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 it
