Abstract
OBJECTIVE: We present a series of unrelated patients with isolated hypomyelination, with or without mild cerebellar atrophy, and de novo TUBB4A mutations. METHODS: Patients in 2 large institutional review board-approved leukodystrophy bioregistries at Children's National Medical Center and Montreal Children's Hospital with similar MRI features had whole-exome sequencing performed. MRIs and clinical information were reviewed. RESULTS: Five patients who presented with hypomyelination without the classic basal ganglia abnormalities were found to have novel TUBB4A mutations through whole-exome sequencing. Clinical and imaging characteristics were reviewed suggesting a spectrum of clinical manifestations. CONCLUSION: Hypomyelinating leukodystrophies remain a diagnostic challenge with a large percentage of unresolved cases. This finding expands the phenotype of TUBB4A-related hypomyelinating conditions beyond hypomyelination with atrophy of the basal ganglia and cerebellum. TUBB4A mutation screening should be considered in cases of isolated hypomyelination or hypomyelination with nonspecific cerebellar atrophy.

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
