Lymphogranuloma venereum serovar L2b in Portugal
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Chlamydia trachomatis, serovar L2, is the causative agent of lymphogranuloma venereum (LGV), which during recent years has been responsible for various outbreaks reported among men who have sex with men (MSM) in Western Europe, America, Canada and Australia. Samples from nine patients with chronic proctitis, seen at a local hospital were sent to us for identification of C. trachomatis serovar L2. The presence of C. trachomatis serovar L DNA was identified by realtime polymerase chain reaction (PCR) in two patients. They both had high positive C. trachomatis antibody titres (>/=10,000) and were found to be infected with serovar L2b by sequencing after amplification of the omp 1 gene by a nested PCR technique. These two individuals met the diagnostic criteria for LGV serovar L2b infection and, to our knowledge, these are the first cases described in Portugal.

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.
