Schmid type of metaphyseal chondrodysplasia and <i>COL10A1</i> mutations—findings in 10 patients
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The Schmid type of metaphyseal chondrodyplasia (MCDS) is characterized by short stature, widened growth plates, and bowing of the long bones. It results from autosomal dominant mutations of COL10A1, the gene which encodes alpha1(X) chains of type X collagen. We report the clinical and radiographic findings in 10 patients with MCDS and COL10A1 mutations. Six patients had lower limb deformities, which necessitated orthopedic surgeries in all of them. One patient demonstrated no deformities and normal stature at age 11 years (height -1.2 SDS) while the others manifested severe short stature (<-3.5 SDS). Radiographs showed metaphyseal changes which were most pronounced at the hips and knees. Five of the identified 10 mutations in COL10A1 were novel. Six mutations resulted in truncation of the NC1 domain while four mutations were single amino-acid substitutions. Our findings suggest that COL10A1 mutations result in a uniform pattern of growth plate abnormalities. However, the clinical variability in severity among affected individuals is greater than previously thought.

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.
