Abstract
Mycotic scalp infection caused by Microsporum canis is one of the more recalcitrant disorders, with increasing incidence during the last decade. We report our experience with administration of itraconazole in 163 children (86 girls, 77 boys) with M. canis tinea capitis. Fifty-five patients had previous treatment with terbinafine without success. In all children, the dosage of itraconazole was adjusted according to body weight, with 5 mg/kg/day given in a continuous regimen either as a capsule (116 patients) or an oral suspension (47 patients). In all children, there was both clinical and mycologic cure after a mean treatment period of 39 +/- 12 days (range 10-77 days). Eleven children (6.7%) had side effects: diarrhea in five children, cutaneous eruption in four, and abdominal pain in two. Itraconazole was effective and safe for the treatment of M. canis tinea capitis.

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
