Lactobacillus Causing Urinary Tract Infection in a Neonate
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Except for their involvement in dental caries, lactobacilli are usually considered to be non-pathogenic, despite occasional reports of serious infections possibly secondary to underlying predisposing conditions like immunodeficiency, malabsorption syndromes, indwelling catheters and malignancy. Here we report a rare case of urinary tract infection (UTI) in neonate due to Lactobacillus species. Lactobacillus causing UTI in our patient is convincing since the Lactobacillus species was isolated in significant quantities from a catheterized urine sample and responded to treatment. The pathogenesis of this infection in our patient is intriguing yet interesting. The fact that she was not breast fed, female gender and a neonate with diminished immune function may have played a role in lactobacillus urinary tract infection. To the best of our knowledge, however, UTI caused by Lactobacillus species in a neonate have not been reported previously. J Med Cases. 2013;4(10):682-685 doi: http://dx.doi.org/10.4021/jmc1454w

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
