Abstract
OBJECTIVES: To determine the incidence, nature, and outcome of encephalopathy associated with viral gastroenteritis in hospitalized children. METHODS: Retrospective chart review of all children during a 4-year period with viral gastroenteritis identified by International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, Clinical Modification/International Classification of Diseases, Tenth Revision (ICD-9-CM/ICD-10) codes. Children with encephalopathy were defined as cases; the remainder served as controls. RESULTS: Thirteen (7.2%) of 181 children presented with encephalopathy (typical febrile seizures, 4; atypical febrile seizures, 4; afebrile seizures, 3; with alteration in level of consciousness alone, 2). Between cases and controls, the mean age (17.4 vs. 14.9 months, respectively) and temperature (38.4 degrees C vs. 38.5 degrees C, respectively) were not significantly different (mean age, P = 0.52; temperature, P = 0.61). The mean length of hospital stay was longer in children with encephalopathy (7 vs. 4.3 days; P = 0.03). All children recovered without sequelae. CONCLUSIONS: Encephalopathy, including afebrile seizures and nonconvulsive encephalopathy, is a relatively common presenting sign of acute viral gastrointestinal tract infection in hospitalized children, has a good outcome, but is associated with increased diagnostic testing and length of stay.

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
