Neuropsychological Impact of Bilateral Cerebral Abscesses in an Adolescent
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Existing literature on neuropsychological outcomes of cerebral abscesses is limited to a single prior study in the adult population. To our knowledge, there is no existing study of neuropsychological outcomes of pediatric cerebral abscesses. Additionally, to our knowledge, no such studies of cerebral abscesses in either a pediatric or an adult population have been published in North America. Through presentation of comprehensive neuropsychological and imaging data, this case of pediatric cerebral abscesses demonstrates the anatomical and neuropsychological impact of right frontal and left thalamic Streptococcus intermedius infection in an adolescent with a history of complex congenital heart disease, a known risk factor for cerebral abscesses. Abscess localization is clearly connected to functional outcomes, specifically deficits in nonverbal reasoning, visual-motor integration, bilateral fine motor speed, motor-based processing speed, memory, and executive functioning. Recommendations are provided for post-acute neuropsychological evaluation of bilateral cerebral abscesses. doi:10.4021/jnr104w

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.
