Abstract
Intestinal infection of cats with Tritrichomonas foetus has been reported in the USA, Canada, several European countries, and Australia. However, T foetus has not been previously reported in cats in Greece. The aim of this study was to test fecal samples from cats living in Greece for the presence of T foetus DNA. Feces were collected from 31 cats living in Greece. DNA was extracted from the fecal samples and the presence of T foetus DNA was detected by a single-tube nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR). T foetus specific DNA was detected in the feces of 6/30 (20.0%) cats. All six cats were reported to have normal fecal quality at the time of sample collection and five of them were adults. The present study confirms for the first time the presence of T foetus in cats in Greece and suggests that T foetus infection is often asymptomatic in older cats.

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
