Perfil de autoanticorpos e correlação clínica em um grupo de pacientes com esclerose sistêmica na região sul do Brasil
Bibliographic record
Abstract
OBJECTIVES: To assess the manifestations of systemic sclerosis (SSc), with an emphasis on the analysis of autoantibodies and their clinical correlations, in a population of patients followed up at the SSc Outpatient Clinics of the Hospital de Clínicas of the Universidade Federal do Paraná. METHODOLOGY: Cross-sectional study with 96 patients followed up at the SSc Outpatient Clinics of the hospital between September 2007 and September 2009. RESULTS: Most patients were of the female sex, in their forties or fifties, and the median time of disease was ten years. The limited cutaneous form of SSc was more prevalent. The analysis of the autoantibodies showed the association of anticentromere antibody (ACA) with the following: the limited form of SSc; more advanced age at the time of diagnosis; longer disease time; longer interval between the appearance of the Raynaud's phenomenon (RyP) and the first non-RyP symptom; systemic arterial hypertension (SAH); and cardiac conduction blocks. The antitopoisomerase-1 antibody (ATA-1, previously called anti-Scl-70) was more common in the presence of the diffuse form of SSc, active disease, and digital ulcers. The anti-RNA polymerase III antibody (anti-Pol III) correlated with the diffuse form of SSc, disease activity, and synovitis. CONCLUSIONS: This study emphasizes and confirms the important role of autoantibodies in assessing patients with SSc, allowing the correlation between the autoimmune profile of patients with SSc and specific manifestations of the disease.

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; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
